About This Home

As of April 2019

Located in the beloved Riverside neighborhood on a cul de sac overlooking Lake Carnegie, this spacious and light-filled Colonial is in close proximity to the Princeton University campus and downtown. The sun-lit front-to-back living room with its tall ceiling, polished wood floor, fireplace and built-in bookcases opens to the dining room, which overlooks the picturesque rear yard and has a floor-to-ceiling bay fitted with French doors leading to the paver patio. The eat-in kitchen, at the center of the home, provides ample cabinet and pantry storage, as well as counter space, a desk area, terra cotta tile floors and a backsplash of blue and white Delft-like tile. Beyond is the family room with a wood floor, skylight and French doors that open to the sunroom with its three walls of windows offering pretty views of the yard. A spacious study and powder room complete the first floor. Upstairs, the large master bedroom suite has two closets and an updated bathroom. Three additional bedrooms and a hall bath with a jetted tub fill the second floor.
