About This Home
As of September 2020Light, bright, well-sized spaces and classic design are the hallmarks of this charming colonial, located in a quiet neighborhood a mile from downtown Princeton. Picture perfect from the curb, this wood-sided home resides on nearly an acre of verdant property. A gracious foyer is the entry point for a beautifully accommodating floor plan: The light-filled living room features crown molding, a wood burning fireplace, and recent custom built-ins on either side of a cozy window seat. The adjacent formal dining room has French doors leading to an enclosed bluestone patio accented by soaring skylights. The updated design in the nearby kitchen is smart and streamlined, making full use of the space with copious storage and a center island. Beyond the kitchen, a mudroom with built-in bench, hooks, and pantry provide the perfect drop-spot for everyday essentials. A step down from the kitchen is the expansive family/casual dining area, showcasing vaulted ceilings, a second wood burning fireplace, custom cabinetry and another set of French doors leading to the deck. The first floor also includes a bookcase-lined office and a powder room. Ascending the stairs to the second floor, three well-sized bedrooms, a full hall bath with a tub, and an in-wall double linen closet await. A roomy master bedroom overlooks the lovely backyard, and offers two sets of double closets and an updated ensuite bathroom with marble walk-in shower, and double-sink vanity. Finally, the home's lower level boasts that highly coveted additional recreation space, with finished space featuring recessed lighting and windows, a full bathroom, and laundry area. Coveted Princeton Schools are nearby. Come see!
