Calling all investors! This four bedroom home in the Top Road section will be vacant soon. With a little bit of work, this could be an income-producing rental property or family home. Located hear the Hamilton / Trenton border, this is a great opportunity for first time home buyers, multi-generational families and investors alike. Adding to the allure of this opportunity is a detached two car garage and sizeable yard. The property is in the process of being cleared out. This home is a short drive to Mercer County Park, Mercer Community College, Trenton and Hamilton Train Stations and Mercer County Airport, providing easy access to both Philadelphia and NYC.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
