This Sears-Kit inspired gem in Hopewell Borough is one of those rare finds: thoughtfully designed, deeply loved, and beautifully preserved. Modeled after the classic Wilmore design and cared for by only two devoted owners, it’s a house that radiates warmth, character, and a quiet kind of magic that only comes with time. From the moment you step into the welcoming front vestibule, complete with its storybook curved door, you’ll sense this is no cookie-cutter house. Sunlight spills into a cozy living room with wood floors that effortlessly connect to a dining room and a sitting room tucked behind French doors. The kitchen is just the right size, with a handy pantry closet and direct access to a generously enclosed porch that begs for summer dinners and lazy afternoons with a good book. In their own private wing, two bedrooms and a full bathroom are nicely sized. The full basement takes care of storage, while a laundry closet on the main floor adds convenience but can always be relocated downstairs. Upstairs, a full-length attic, accessible by straight stairs, waits with open arms to become a dreamy primary suite or whatever your imagination dares to create.
