About this home
Single Family · Built 1850 · Historic
As-is sale. This beautiful, historic farmhouse maintains much of its original charm,though it is in need of restoration or renovation. Lovingly known as Strawberry Hill Farm by the owners, its idyllic setting includes a 2-story barn and two other outbuildings on 2.7 scenic acres. The attached apartment could be easily returned as part of the main house, provide rental income, or serve as an in-law suite. This is a wonderful opportunity to live in one of Princeton's most desirable neighborhoods.
