About This Home
As of June 2018Welcome home to this gem of an east facing house in the established West Windsor neighborhood of Benford Estates. A short ten minute walk from the PJ train station and within walking distance of the Maurice Hawk and West Windsor Plainsboro High School South schools, this is a prime Princeton Junction location. Beautifully appointed and completely updated, you will be entranced by the park like setting among hardwood trees and the recently refreshed front landscaping, the brand new driveway, blue stone side path and the paver patio within a fully fenced backyard. Once inside, the interior begs to be enjoyed. Freshly painted, it offers hardwood floors on both levels and a stunning, yet practical kitchen remodel. The maple KraftMaid cabinets extend to the ceiling, enhanced by crown moulding and a large center island which doubles as both the kitchen table and generous work space. Numerous recessed lights and a one of a kind hand forged chandelier supply ample light. Recent appliance updates include a Dacor double oven, KitchenAid dishwasher and an LG French door refrigerator. The floor is eco friendly cork, easy on the legs of any chef! You will find that the Living and Dining Rooms have been switched as these owners love to entertain and wanted a really large dining room but you can certainly convert them back to their original uses. Just recently, the owners had a top of the line Mendota gas insert installed in the family room fireplace. Upstairs are four bedrooms with ample closet space and two 100% gutted and updated bathrooms. Other newer systems include the roof and gutter replacements as well as the air conditioner and electrical service which was upgraded to 200 amps to accommodate future home expansion. The always dry finished basement adds greatly to the living space with a rec room and office. Run, don't walk to this fabulous opportunity so close to transportation, schools, shopping and restaurants!!
