A rare opportunity to own 3.7 acres in one of Hopewell Township's most scenic and desirable settings, just minutes from Pennington and Princeton. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the area, this special property offers space, privacy, and tremendous potential for a buyer with vision. The property includes a historic farmhouse dating to approximately 1800. The home requires extensive renovation and is being offered strictly as-is. This is an opportunity for a buyer prepared to undertake a significant rehabilitation and reimagine a very special piece of Hopewell Township history. The property's greatest appeal lies in its setting. Enjoy abundant wildlife and birdlife—including bald eagles and owls—and miles of nearby trails for walking, running, biking, and horseback riding. Mercer County Park is within walking distance, offering a lake for fishing, boating and kayaking, picnic areas, a dog park, and extensive recreational amenities. The 3.7-acre property offers the potential for keeping one horse, subject to Township requirements, with an equestrian center conveniently located nearby. Despite its peaceful, rural atmosphere, the property is remarkably convenient: approximately five miles from Princeton Borough, minutes from everyday shopping, dining, groceries and services, and convenient to rail service connecting to New York, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., and beyond. The property is served by the highly regarded Hopewell Valley Regional School District, with the Pennington School also nearby. Federal City Road takes its name from a fascinating chapter in the area's history, when this part of New Jersey was considered as a possible location for the nation's capital. Today, 404 Federal City Road offers 3.7 beautiful acres, a circa-1800 farmhouse, and a remarkable opportunity to restore and reimagine a historic property in an exceptional location.
