About This Home

As of June 2021

When an immaculate interior, lovely setting and prime location top your list, look no further than this Colonial. Built in 1968 and lovingly maintained over the years, this fine home is positioned to take full advantage of all the upscale Academy Manor community has to offer. While you are free to indulge your passions, the location keeps you close to shopping, recreation, schools and transportation. Beautifully framed by manicured shrubbery, this home is certain to draw attention. Resting on a beautiful spacious lot, curb appeal is only the beginning. A walkway leads you up to the covered front porch, welcoming you into the home. Inside, you are greeted by an open-concept main living area where spacious rooms, classic hardwood floors, and versatile décor welcome a wide array of furnishings and artwork. Only your belongings and personal touch are required in a place you can easily call home. The foyer spills into the living room and formal dining room, with the sparkling updated kitchen with new countertops and fridge. The living room includes a wall of windows, keeping the space sunny and inviting. A breakfast nook next to the kitchen provides the perfect place for casual dining. Finally, the expansive family room anchored by a cozy wood burning fireplace, includes sliders to the deck and backyard. The main living area is great for entertaining, giving your guest plenty of room to mingle. All four bedrooms, including the master suite, are comfortably nestled on the second floor. The master includes an en suite bathroom for maximum privacy, while the other three bedrooms share a common bath. The other bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, and the bathroom is equipped to help everyone through the daily rush. The basement is fully finished with berber carpet and ample storage, boasting a full bathroom. Outside the deck overlooks the spacious, private backyard, offering the ideal venue for dining entertaining, active play and gardening. With more than a third of an acre of space available, it is easy to envision expanding the deck or even adding an inground pool. Other updates include, new roof (2 years), new water heater (3 years) and blown in insulation in the main attic. 36 Merion Place is conveniently located near major highways, Princeton and Pennington, and easy commuting to NYC and Philly. Direct access from the fenced backyard to the Willows Swim Club, only steps away, and the Johnson Trolley Line Trail, a walking path connecting this enclave to the Lawrenceville Main Street district and the Lawrence Hopewell Trail. Come check out this beauty and fall in love. The possibilities are endless, and the journey begins with your vision.
