About This Home

As of July 2020

Skylights, ten-foot ceilings and huge windows amp up the natural light and airy atmosphere within this enlarged Princeton home. Although it is steps from renowned Riverside School, the .63-acre lot feels secluded, especially around the sun-splashed pool, which was just painted. Step up from the tiled entry to the open living room, where hardwood floors begin. A bay window and a fireplace are traditional elements around which to gather. Both the dining room and the kitchen outfitted with beveled wood cabinetry and neutral tile give way to sunny spaces added in 2005, about the same time that windows were replaced throughout and several other updates were completed. Now, a breakfast room and sitting area overlook large evergreens and a side door opens to a stone patio. A sizeable sunroom with exposed brick is also restful and versatile. The bedroom wing includes a fully tiled hall bath for 2 comfortable bedrooms and the master suite with a fully tiled bath of its own. Below, a third full bath serves a study with a door to the pool. The lower level has further space for hobbies, laundry and recreation, including a finished walk-out game room.
