About This Home

As of August 2019

Within blocks of schools, shopping, restaurants and all that vibrant Princeton has to offer, yet tucked away in an exceptional, private setting embraced by nature and light, this former schoolhouse has been renovated and expanded to perfection. Generously-proportioned rooms, illuminated by a plethora of oversized windows, skylights and glass doors, are arranged in a flowing floor plan. Inviting living and dining rooms, together with a family room warmed by a fireplace and mahogany built-ins - are all perfect for lively gatherings, which can easily continue outside on the screened porch, patios and wonderful backyard. A well-appointed kitchen delights with granite counters, newly-refinished cabinets and sparkling stainless appliances. Upstairs, ample closet space complements 4 bright bedrooms, including the tranquil master with lovely views and private skylit bath. A 3-bay garage plays host to a 2nd floor studio with vaulted ceiling, ideal as guest quarters or the ultimate office. Rose gardens and a gravel drive harmonize with this peaceful haven.
