Property Description
To own the Mary Norton House is to own a treasured piece of Hightstown history. Ideally located opposite the famed Peddie School, this circa 1850's home is warm and inviting, as it was for Clara Barton when she visited in 1863 while collecting supplies and raising money for the care of civil war soldiers. Through the years, Mary Norton "a woman of high mental attainment" entertained cultured and well-read guests. It is only fitting that this home's built-in bookcases and corner cabinets remain to showcase these pursuits. The current owners have maintained the home's vintage interior, refinishing the inlaid oak floors on the first floor and the pine floors on the second. High ceilings in the front parlor and a working fireplace make for wonderfully cozy gatherings while the second parlor would house a piano just beautifully. At the back of the house is a generous dining room that overlooks the very deep backyard. The adjacent kitchen was recently remodeled to feature period appropriate, to the ceiling cabinetry and modern appliances. Step out the back door to the cottage garden and enjoy the rewards of a simple harvest. Upstairs are three sunny bedrooms and the hall bathroom, tiled in striking black and white with subway tiles in the bathtub surround. The shared driveway leads to plenty of parking behind the house with additional parking on the street. Write the next chapter of this storied home as you become it's most recent steward! *One year AHS home warranty included for buyers*
