Step into a piece of Bordentown history. Originally commissioned in 1900 by the owner of a nearby factory, this remarkable estate was thoughtfully designed well ahead of its time, blending grand architecture with practical features rarely found in historic homes—including oversized walk-in closets and expansive living spaces. Set on more than an acre and a half, this 3,278-square-foot residence offers an extraordinary opportunity to own one of Bordentown's most distinctive properties. From the moment you enter, the home's craftsmanship is unmistakable. A stunning grand staircase, soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, and exquisite woodwork showcase the elegance of a bygone era, while Frank Lloyd Wright masonry details and a custom metal kitchen hood crafted by the renowned JL Mott Ironworks Factory add architectural character seldom found today. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the home features five bedrooms - including a convenient first-floor bedroom - along with two additional flex rooms ideal for home offices, a library, or additional accommodations. The updated kitchen with viking appliances is complemented by a walk-through butler's pantry with original glass door cabinetry, while both full bathrooms have been thoughtfully renovated with respect for the home's historic integrity, including the preservation of the original clawfoot tub in the upstairs bath. Multiple fireplaces, including one in the primary bedroom, create warm and inviting spaces throughout the home. Outside, enjoy the charm of a wraparound porch as well as a partially enclosed porch, and a side portico alongside mature trees and a partially fenced backyard. An expansive driveway and a full basement spanning the home's entire footprint add both convenience and functionality. Perhaps the rarest feature of all is the property's exceptional future potential. The rear portion of the lot was previously approved for construction of a second dwelling (2,500 sqft) and already has a separate driveway along with existing utility connections, including electric, sewer, and gas. Buyers should perform their own due diligence regarding current approvals and permitted use. Seller makes no warranty or future guarantee of city approvals to build. With a roof replaced just one year ago and updates completed with careful respect for the home's historic character, this is a rare opportunity to own a landmark property where timeless craftsmanship, modern comfort, and exceptional possibilities come together.

About Bordentown City

Bordentown is a small historic city on the Delaware at the northern edge of Burlington County — barely a square mile, laid out in a walkable grid that runs down to the river. Farnsworth Avenue is the spine, lined with restaurants, antique shops and storefronts, and the side streets give away how old the place is: Prince, Borden, Hopkinson, Crosswicks. Thomas Paine lived here, and Joseph Bonaparte built his American estate on the bluff above the water.

What separates Bordentown from the rest of Burlington County is the housing itself. Roughly half of everything that trades here is attached — twins, semi-detached homes and rowhouses built shoulder to shoulder on tight city lots. That is genuinely unusual in this county, and it is the reason the entry point into a historic walkable town stays within reach. Detached single-family exists all through the grid as well, but it shares the streets with everything else rather than sitting off in subdivisions.

The range is wider than a city this size suggests. Small twins on the numbered streets sit at one end, restored center-hall homes on Prince and Farnsworth at the other, and the midpoint lands right around $400,000. That spread is what keeps the town mixed — first-time buyers, downsizers and people trading up all shop the same few blocks, which is also why well-priced houses here do not sit.

Buyers searching "Bordentown" are usually looking at two different municipalities without realizing it. Bordentown City and Bordentown Township are separate governments, each with its own mayor, governing body and municipal tax rate, and they offer genuinely different housing — the city is a walkable historic grid, the township is subdivisions. What they do not differ on is schools. Bordentown Regional serves the city, the township and Fieldsboro Borough as one district, with Clara Barton and MacFarland Intermediate right here in the city for grades two through five, and Peter Muschal, Bordentown Regional Middle and Bordentown Regional High across the line in the township. Every child in both towns moves through the same five schools. Choosing between the city and the township is a choice about the kind of house and the kind of street — not about where your kids go.

Named communities are few, because most of Bordentown is simply the historic grid. Kings Gate on Park Street is the one true condominium address in the city, and Bordentown Crosswick accounts for a cluster of twins over on Mary and Thompson. Beyond those two, attached homes here are individual houses on individual streets rather than anything with an association behind it.

Location is a real part of the value. The NJ Transit RiverLine runs through town on a direct light-rail ride to Trenton and Camden, Routes 130 and 206 handle the rest, and Turnpike Exit 7 is minutes away, which puts both Philadelphia and central Jersey in play from the same address. Whether you are watching the newest listings or reading where values are heading, Joe Wiessner Realty tracks this market listing by listing.
