About This Home

As of March 2024

This utterly refined, yet totally approachable, Western Section home is full of comfortably elegant rooms that are actually enjoyed on a daily basis. Unexpectedly airy alcoves, tall windows and furniture-style built-ins are details that make every area feel custom for an experience unlike any other in the neighborhood. The yard, too, is brimming with a wide variety of trees and plantings that provide privacy and interest throughout the seasons. French doors open to two stone patios, while a bay window seat in the storage-rich dining room is a great spot to watch snowfall while staying cozy indoors. The openly adjoining kitchen comes equipped with Thermador appliances and stone countertops in a leathered finish. A family room wrapped in bookshelves and a luminous sunroom are gorgeous spots to unwind, while a versatile hideaway beyond the laundry room is anything you make it - gym, office, game day retreat, etc. A first floor bedroom suite with a modern bath and double closets is another invaluable asset that widens this home’s appeal. Not only will guests love it, owner’s may choose to make it the primary bedroom. Two more bedrooms upstairs both have plentiful closets and private bathrooms, one naturally brightened by a skylight beside an oversized marble-tiled shower. In the other suite, a secondary room makes the ultimate walk-in or study. On a sleepy street just a half-mile from downtown and Princeton University campus, this timelessly styled home offers a rare blend of quietude and convenience.
