Have you been dreaming of reimagining a home? Have you watched hours of HGTV? Do you want something different than millennial grey? Well, here is your opportunity. Set on an oversized, fenced lot in the Pursel Hill neighborhood of Phillipsburg, this single-family home is your canvas! Get ready to bring your visions to life and restore the hardwood floors, color wash the plaster walls, wide moldings and ceilings, and maybe refinish an old dresser in the two-car garage - you know to accent a room. Complete with charming front porch, perfect for summer night breezes, and a mature Japanese Maple tree providing shade and dappled light in the yard. Picture the foyer in a bold, rich blue paint wrapped from molding to molding - the living and dining rooms with thick, velvet drapes, and a warmly modern kitchen with sunlit breakfast nook - maybe a built-in bench belongs here! Two bedrooms - ready for large canvas paintings and plush rugs, perfectly complimented by a walk-in dressing room, and bathroom brimming with potential - picture open shelving, white hexagon tiles, and a back-lit medicine cabinet - all on the second floor. Full stairs lead to a stellar space, a third floor - think studio space, think a reading nook with built-in bookcases, think a mini-movie theatre. While this narrative is complete with many ideas, please note they are indeed just ideas. We are looking forward to your visit and the potential you will see in this home.
