About This Home
As of November 2025Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in Princeton’s sought-after Littlebrook neighborhood, this
striking 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath contemporary home blends thoughtful modern design with a rare
connection to nature while within walking distance to downtown. Crafted by an architect to
maximize luxury, comfort, and versatility for a growing family, the home is bathed in warm
natural light from skylights and expansive windows. Entering under a vine-draped pergola, the
open first floor features an updated kitchen with granite countertops, high-end stainless steel
appliances, and custom cabinetry for the culinary enthusiast. A sunroom with skylights and
sliding doors opens to a private garden—perfect for morning coffee or tending to herbs. The
spacious living room centers around a travertine fireplace and opens to a bluestone patio
through double sliding glass doors for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A convenient powder
room completes the main level. Up the central stair, a newly updated bedroom suite includes a
skylit bathroom with double sink, walk-in shower, and an ensuite laundry room. A few steps
above, the expansive primary suite features a sitting area with fireplace, a sun-drenched bath,
and abundant closet space. Both bedrooms enjoy stunning views of the secluded garden and
natural backdrop through ample large windows. A third south-facing bedroom offers flexibility as
a nursery, office, or studio. The layout provides exceptional privacy and acoustic separation
between rooms while maintaining a cohesive flow. Outdoors, the lush backyard is a private,
tranquil retreat shaded by blossoming magnolia and cherry trees and serenaded by the gentle
sounds of the nearby creek—a haven for birds, seasonal wildlife, and peaceful reflection. A
generous patio invites al fresco dining, summer gatherings, or cozy evenings by the fire pit.
Despite its central location, the home enjoys rare seclusion, surrounded by nature. Additional
features include off-street parking for four vehicles, well-appointed storage, and a whole-house
generator for uninterrupted comfort and security in any weather. With continuous sidewalks to
top-rated schools, Princeton University, the NYC shuttle stop, and downtown dining and
shopping, this home offers refined, light-filled living with unmatched walkability and urban
convenience in one of Princeton’s most desirable neighborhoods.
