About this home

Some homes simply capture you from the moment you arrive, and this remarkable all-brick residence in the heart of Lawrenceville, known as the Bray-Wageley House, is one of them. Hidden behind a gated brick courtyard with classic wood shutters and custom flower boxes, this home carries a warmth and character that feels increasingly rare, where historic craftsmanship and modern living exist in perfect balance.
Overlooking the quiet beauty of the cemetery across the street, the setting offers an unexpected sense of calm and privacy while remaining just steps from the restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and energy that define Lawrenceville living. It is a home that feels connected to the neighborhood’s history while thoughtfully designed for today’s lifestyle.
Inside, original details immediately take center stage. Wide plank pine floors, an elegant original staircase, exposed brick, and six fireplaces throughout the home create a richness and authenticity that cannot be replicated. One of the most captivating moments is found in the kitchen, where the fireplace brings an unmistakable old-world charm to the heart of the home, creating the feeling of a historic countryside gathering space, yet paired seamlessly with high-end appliances, modern amenities, a center island, and abundant natural light.
The living room is spacious yet intimate, anchored by a newly added gas fireplace insert that invites quiet evenings and meaningful gatherings alike. Nearby, the dining room offers the perfect setting for hosting, opening naturally into one of the home’s most enchanting features: the outdoor living spaces.
Just off the kitchen, a covered side patio creates an effortless extension of the home, with room for a long dining table, lounging areas, and evenings spent surrounded by lush perennial and annual gardens. Brick pavers wind through the fully fenced backyard to a private fire pit retreat and grilling area, creating a hidden oasis that feels tucked away from the city while still immersed in the vibrancy of Lawrenceville.
Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms continue the home’s timeless appeal, including a serene primary suite with its own ensuite bath and peaceful views overlooking the gardens below. Even the lower level offers rare versatility for a historic home, providing highly functional space ideal for a gym, wine storage, workshop, office or additional flex space. Next door, a new flower/coffee shop is currently in the works, and when the wine runs out, you’ll be just steps away from the Solera Wine bar, a favorite in the neighborhood.
Rich with character, layered with history, and thoughtfully updated for modern living, this is more than just a home. The Bray-Wageley House is the kind of property that speaks to those searching for the feeling of living somewhere truly memorable....
