About This Home
As of May 2019Perfectly placed amidst the proudest homes in Princeton's coveted Western Section, this classic center hall is oozing with charm and warmth from a bygone era, while including a variety of significant modern day enhancements. The current owners have been great stewards to the property for over 3 decades and oversaw a beautifully executed kitchen/family room renovation and expansion. The result is the perfect space for gathering and lounging whether for day to day living or those more formal entertaining events. Combined with gracious formal living & dining rooms, and a paneled library, the house has a great scale for today's market and will be the 'just the right size' for many buyers, not too big and not too small. Sunlight flows through an abundance of windows on the main floor while four bedrooms on the second floor each have a dedicated bathroom. Front and back stairs, central air conditioning, a butler's pantry and a breakfast nook are all added practical elements as well. On the outside, the house is enveloped by exquisite mature landscaping, and a brick patio provides the best spot for the grill. A detached two-car garage is also included. What's best is the location itself, only a couple of blocks to Nassau Street, less than a half mile to Palmer Square and Princeton University and less than a mile to the train. Come see, it won't last long!
