About This Home

As of May 2019

Absolutely charming rancher with a Princeton address in West Windsor Township. Northwest facing and close to the train station, it is all about location! Immaculate from top to bottom, this sweet brick front home is welcoming and cozy yet very roomy. Enter from the pretty brick front walkway into the efficient Foyer. To the right, an open layout Living Room to Dining Room is bathe in natural light from all the picture windows all around. The beautiful Sunroom sits toward the back of the house, so inviting and bright. Slider to the tidy backyard is open and ample. Two fireplaces mean choosing which room to sit in! Kitchen is well maintained with lots of lighting and storage. Breakfast Bar is multifunctional and well positioned. Suite retreat! The Master Bedroom feels grand and comfy with a gorgeous Master Bath recently updated with double sinks, full glass shower, so luxurious! Cedar lined closets are a plus. Two matching sized Bedrooms have plenty of space and uses. Hall bath, also well done, with large vanity and glass shower doors sits at the end of the Hall and close to bedrooms. Plantation shutters in both full baths. Hunter Douglas window and slider door treatments throughout. Basement is unfinished but massive in size and with so many finishing possibilities. A Bilco Door walk out is located at the back of basement and exits to the backyard. An Office and full Laundry Space lies in the rest of the lower level. In addition, the Powder Room is located close to gathering spaces but can also be converted to Laundry use if needed. The two car garage is super clean, has high ceilings and plenty of storage. See this lovely property sooner than later...so many positives not to ignore. Close to Rt 1, NJ Transit/Amtrak station, NJ Turnpike, well located to NYC to Philadelphia, so much more!
