A rare opportunity to own one of Morristown's most iconic and well-maintained Victorian residences, ideally located just moments from downtown restaurants, shopping, NJ Transit direct trains to NYC, parks, schools, and major highways.

Historic details include soaring 12-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, intricate millwork, crown moldings, five fireplaces, and expansive living spaces throughout.

A renovated suite above the detached garage provides exceptional flexibility for guest quarters, extended stays, private office, creative studio, or potential professional use. Outdoors, enjoy a private fenced yard, patio, and mature landscaping in the heart of Morristown.
