About this House

Nestled in the heart of highly sought after Pennington Boro, this one-of-a-kind residence offers the perfect blend of historic character and modern comfort within the beautifully converted “Old Pennington Schoolhouse”. With almost $100,000 in upgrades, this recently remodeled, top-floor one-bedroom, one-bath condominium with a den features a spacious open-concept layout highlighted by soaring ceilings, hardwood floors throughout, exposed brick, and striking arched windows that not only flood the home with natural light but allow for breathtaking sunset views to enjoy nightly. The living and dining areas flow seamlessly and are complemented by a separate den, which is ideal for a home office, reading nook, or guest space - offering flexible living beyond the main gathering areas. These spaces open to a private balcony, creating a rare indoor-outdoor retreat overlooking the picturesque surroundings of the Boro. The thoughtfully updated bathroom showcases clean, modern finishes with timeless appeal, while in-unit laundry adds everyday convenience. Additional features include an electric fireplace and elegant crown molding, enhancing the home’s warmth and character. The building offers elevator access and a dedicated storage locker, which provides practical storage without compromising the charm of this historic property. Perfectly positioned just steps from Pennington’s shops, restaurants, and community events - including the Memorial Day Parade, Pennington Day, and the beloved Holiday Walk - this home delivers true small-town living with exceptional lifestyle appeal. Enjoy easy access to Hopewell Boro, Princeton, Yardley, Lambertville, and New Hope, as well as convenient commuting via Routes 31, 29, 295/195/95, Hamilton and West Trenton train stations, and Trenton-Mercer Airport.
