About This Home
As of August 2013This brick front Princeton home proudly stands on an Ettl Farm street lined with sidewalks and sycamores. Separately fenced around back, a free-form pool is ready for summertime entertaining along with a pergola-crowned deck. The front entry reveals a dramatic central staircase and hardwood floors that extend into the formal rooms with deep crown and chair molding and even into the kitchen, where gray granite spans a breakfast bar island. The two-story family room has one of two fireplaces and double doors opening to a study with built-ins. Upstairs, brand new carpeting spreads into 2 bedrooms suites, including the large master with sitting and dressing rooms, and two more bedrooms joined by a jack and jill bath. A clever interior window seat overlooking the family room is loaded with easy access storage. The basement is already finished, complete with an office and full bathroom. With 3 large bays, the garage has more than enough room for cars, storage and a workshop.
