Duplex in the heart of Princeton within walking distance to YWCA, Palmer Sq, library, Princeton art council, Princeton University, community pool, train station, restaurants and stores. Some damage to second floor bedroom and roof due to fire in (on left side of the home when facing home from the front).

Access to basement through both homes and also through the garage door. Washer and dryer hook up in the basement. 3 bedrooms with one bath on both sides. Both sides are complete mirror image of each other. Enter into the hallway with hardwood floors leading into the living room, eat in kitchen, patio and back yard. Bedrooms and bathrooms are on the second floor. Do not miss this opportunity to own this lovely lot in downtown Princeton! This is a great buy for both investors and multi generational families that would like to live in town. Home is located in the historic district of John Witherspoon and historic restrictions apply. Sold as is, buyer responsible for all inspections.
