12 Manning Ln, Lawrence Township, NJ 08648

This Cape Cod style cottage fits right in on what just might be the sweetest street in the Village of Lawrenceville, right around the corner from local favorites, like The Gingered Peach. Trellises frame the windows and a gravel path circles around to the sunny backyard edged with mature greenery and a brick patio. Theres even a traditional Dutch door introducing the vestibule entry. The living room is lined with bookshelves and a white-washed fireplace, while recessed lighting is a functional modern touch. The dining room leads into the efficient linear kitchen done in timeless black and white. Hardwood floors continue right into two bedrooms with breezy ceiling fans and a full bath tucked perfectly in between. Outdoor stairs lead up to an apartment-style second floor ripe with possibility. The lofty main room has triple windows at either end, plus central skylights. Exposed brick and a wood stove lend warm character. A bedroom, bath, full kitchen and even laundry make this private level ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Of course, working from home or creating art up here would be a dream for those who require dedicated space to spread out and focus. Owner is a former NJ-licensed real estate agent.
