About This Home

As of July 2024

On a corner lot in Princeton's coveted Western Section, close to exciting downtown and the University campus, this beautifully priced 4-bedroom offers a flowing floor plan and classic charm, all just a stroll from Greenway Meadows, Marquand Park, and Johnson Park School - an area that includes some of Princeton's most exclusive properties. Wood floors line the main level: a fireside living room, a pretty dining room with French doors to a screened porch, and a granite and stainless-lined kitchen with a hardwood dining island. A spacious family room with a wet bar is ready for watching the big game. A walk-in storage closet and a full bath also serve a separate office. Another full bath serves upper level bedrooms - one with en suite access - and on its own level, the private master suite. A fenced, planted yard with a flagstone patio surround an in-ground pool (needs vinyl liner replacement, estimate available). A large basement and attic (with a whole house fan) provide storage or expansion possibilities. Central air, 2-car attached garage.
