Built in 1875, 12 West Franklin has not been on the market since 1957!! That's when the current owners fell in love with this magnificent semi-detached property, purchased it, and have been lovingly maintaining it ever since. Walking onto the front wrap around porch is like walking into history! As you enter the welcoming foyer, you immediately get a sense of a by gone era. You'll notice the high ceilings, beautiful large windows, and hardwood floors throughout. There is a natural flow from the living room to the dining room and into the eat in kitchen. Although some renovation work as been completed, there is more that can be done to help restore this home to what it once was! A recently updated laundry/mud room and half bath complete the main level. The 2nd level, with newly refinished hardwood floors is where you will find the main hall bath and 3 sizable bedrooms, all newly painted. At the end of the hall is a cool bonus room, which would make a fantastic office, small den, or even a possible laundry room! It also has a door leading to a balcony on the front of the house! The 3rd floor has one more bedroom ready for use. There are 2 other rooms that have been refreshed, each would make a wonderful bedroom or add to the living space, but heat would need to be added. An additional, non-heated bonus room can be found at the end of the hall. One final staircase leads to a full walk up attic, a space just begging to be finished and used! A secluded back yard, complete with a hot tub, will be the ideal spot for entertaining! This is a wonderful home, looking for an owner that can see it for what it can be! Convenient to all major roadways, 3 train stations, a regional airport, Princeton, Hopewell Boro, and New Hope, properties like this don't come on too often in Town - the size, location, low taxes, and potential make this an opportunity not to be missed!
