227 Wood St, Burlington, NJ 08016

Cute as a button.....neat as a pin! Circa 1924 Cape, 2 blocks from the Delaware River Promenade, lovingly and tastefully restored inside and out. Located in the historic district(The Ulysses S Grant house is a few doors down)~.. brick sidewalks, iron fencing, old growth trees and 19th century homes create the setting for this property. The exterior of the home is stucco with a slate roof, real wood doors and true divided lite wood windows. A beautiful lush English garden with stone walkways, colorful Rhododendrons, Azaleas, Ferns, Cherry and Magnolia trees and a brick patio surrounded by wrought iron fencing compliments the rear and side yards. The interior of this home is no less stunning and demonstrates how a true restoration should be. Look at the interior pictures.....wood floors, real wood burning fireplace with mantle, tile surround and cast iron liners, real plaster walls, period doors, wide baseboards and window trim, crown mouldings, wood sash, period radiators, wood cabinets, etc......a lot of effort went into this home. What you don't see and is equally important is that the insulation, roofing, electrical, plumbing and heating systems are all upgraded while still maintaining the historic charm of the home. The first floor has a 20 x 14 living room with fireplace, dining room, powder room and kitchen. The kitchen maintains the historic charm with pine cabinetry, wood floors, tin ceilings and tile backsplash but also has modern high end appliances such as a cast iron AGA gas range, Subzero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher and AGA compact undercounter refrigerator. An oak tread staircase takes you to the second floor where there are 2 bedrooms and a full bath. The full bath has a tile floor, furniture grade vanity and a custom tile shower. A full basement provides plenty of storage and access to the utilities. This property is just minutes from The Burlington Bristol Bridge, Riverline and Rt 130.
