The Historic Italianate Schoolhouse is a one-of-a-kind residence where art, architecture, and modern living converge. Built in 1878 as Lambertville's First Ward School and reimagined over four years by New York art collectors, this 5,500 sq ft, 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home blends preserved craftsmanship with state-of-the-art systems. The sweeping three-story staircase and cabinetry by Paul Evans remain, while updated mechanicals, Lutron lighting, and new windows ensure comfort and efficiency. Inside, 12-foot ceilings and oversized windows flood the home with light. The grand foyer leads to a living room with fireplace, wet bar, art gallery, and library/dining room. A wood-paneled sunroom opens to a private, illuminated walled garden by Buck Walter, with slate and granite hardscaping, multiple seating areas, secret garden, and parking for six plus an attached garage. The gourmet kitchen features top appliances, a large island, and custom commercial hood.The third floor offers a south-facing primary suite with sitting room, dressing area, and luxury bath with Fornasetti wallpaper and antique fixtures, plus two additional bedrooms. A fourth-floor private suite and an attic with climate-controlled gym add flexibility. Combining historic elegance with modern convenience, this rare property is both a home and a living work of art in the heart of Lambertville. Home is also available fully furnished.
