About This Home

As of June 2014

Sophisticated Elegance. A welcoming foyer sets the stage for a positive experience as you wander through this home. Enthusiasm radiates as you explore a spacious living room blending seamlessly into a formal dining room suitable for a banquet. One of the four gas fireplaces in this home flanks the living room and the other is in the family room/kitchen/breakfast area and both can be seen from the dining room. Beautiful views are available through walls of glass and windows, the screened porch, deck and patios. The third fireplace is in the first floor Master Suite and the fourth adds to the warmth of the Library. On the second level there are three generous size bedrooms and two full baths. The basement is finished, with a game room, full bath, wine cellar and plenty of storage. There is a three car attached garage which opens to the mud room, corridor of closets, laundry, pantry and guest closets for optimum convenience. What a wonderful opportunity to live in Princeton, with the University, Institute for Advanced Study, some of the most highly regarded schools, a museum, McCarter Theater, a fabulous town, Commuter Train to NYC - Philadelphia, or connect to anywhere --- right at your door step!
