About This Home

Have you ever dreamed of living on a tree-lined street in the heart of Princeton, where timeless elegance meets everyday convenience? This rare opportunity places you just moments from downtown and within walking distance of Princeton’s top-rated elementary, middle, and high schools—all while offering a home of quiet refinement and generous living space.

This beautifully appointed four-bedroom residence blends classic charm with modern comfort. The first floor welcomes you with an open-concept layout, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and a thoughtfully updated gourmet kitchen. A dining room and rear sitting area complete an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining. The downstairs connects seamlessly to the beautifully landscaped rear garden through two access points.

Upstairs, the second floor features three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with a fireplace and an adjoining sitting room or private office—perfect for cozy evenings or quiet productivity. The third floor offers exceptional flexibility, serving as a fourth bedroom, playroom, or fitness space, complete with its own full bathroom.

A full, dry basement provides excellent additional space for storage. Whether you're stowing seasonal decor, organizing household extras, or setting up a home workshop, this level offers both practicality and potential.

Outside, the garden is a private sanctuary—lush, mature, and lovingly maintained. Whether hosting guests, cultivating a garden, or simply enjoying a quiet afternoon under Princeton’s iconic tree canopy, this outdoor space elevates everyday living.

This is Princeton living at its finest—graceful, walkable, and unmistakably home.
