About This Home

As of March 2016

This is THE opportunity to live in coveted Riverside with a completely renovated home, just a short stroll to the recently ranked #1 elementary school in the state, the shops and restaurants on Nassau Street and Princeton University. The moment you walk through the door, you will be impressed with the open floor plan and expansive living areas, completely updated kitchen with granite counter tops, wood cabinetry, stainless appliances, huge breakfast bar, and living and dining rooms on the main level that are tailor-made for entertaining guests. The great room provides excellent flexibility for your living style, with plenty of space for both formal dining and relaxed living. The lower level has a spacious family room, with wood burning fireplace; perfect for game nights. The four bedrooms are all generously proportioned on the upper level. The recently updated master bathroom enjoys a spa-like feel with walk-in twin shower, freestanding tub, and marble settings. The sizable master bedroom benefits from an impressive walk-in closet with beautiful built-in shelving. Hardwood floors throughout. The enormous fenced-in back yard and large deck are perfect for enjoying the peaceful outdoors. Not to be missed is the one-of-a-kind tree house as an office get-away, artist studio or fun clubhouse! Too many to mention updates include new windows and garage doors, new siding and trim around the entire home, complete kitchen renovation, complete master bed and bath renovation, new portico and custom wood door, refinished porch, refinished fireplace, 10' privacy trees to back yard, irrigation system and landscaping to name a few. Now is the opportunity to purchase this turn-key home and truly enjoy all that Princeton has to offer.
