About 61 Church St

Calling all old-house lovers. This brick and frame Lambertville home is a study in how to bring an older house forward without erasing what made it special in the first place. Located on a residential block in the Central Business District, this single-family home was extensively renovated and expanded, with nearly every space receiving attention while original woodwork and architectural details were maintained or thoughtfully replicated and/or reclaimed from other structures. The addition created two of the home's biggest surprises: a spacious great room and an impressive primary suite above. In the great room, reclaimed leaded-glass transoms complement the leaded and stained-glass windows throughout the original part of the house, helping the newer space feel as though it has always belonged. The original rooms offer wonderful scale and craftsmanship, with separate living and dining rooms, a study, built-ins and substantial millwork. The updated kitchen connects old and new, while a foyer/mudroom opens directly to the driveway, with parking for up to four cars depending on vehicle size. Generous enough to double as a work-from-home space, it could even accommodate occasional client visits without bringing them through the main living areas. From the great room, a door opens to a bluestone patio with space for a grill and al fresco dining. Upstairs, the new primary suite includes two large walk-in closets and a beautifully finished bathroom with a freestanding tub and glass shower. Two additional bedrooms share the hall bathroom. The third floor adds another charming, flexible room with a built-in bench. Even the basement is entirely usable, with laundry, a recreation room, and Bilco doors to the patio.
