11 MONROE AVE Lawrenceville, NJ 08648

Colorful butterflies flutter above the bright zinnias, hydrangea, and cosmos in the fairytale flower gardens backing this utterly irresistible Lawrenceville home. From its stroll-to-town location, to its wide front porch with scrolled brackets, to its tiered back deck, this 4-bedroom charms on every level, as vintage details of hardwood floors, period millwork, and crystal doorknobs join updated windows, furnace, and roof. A spacious foyer flows to living and dining rooms with flexibility and a wonderful openness. Beyond is the eat-in kitchen, modern in amenities and classic in style, with ample white cabinetry that includes a built-in buffet and honed soapstone counters. A pocket door privatizes a handy powder room. Front and back stairs lead to 4 sunlit bedrooms, 2 with built-in bookshelves, that share an updated wainscoted bath with subway tile and a sweet octagonal window. The top floor houses a large bonus room with storage - great for t.v.-watching, exercise, or even guests. Close to bakeries, shops, and Starbucks! Detached garage currently houses workshop and meditation space. Could be converted for car parking.
