About This Home
As of December 2024Here’s your chance to secure the sweetest of homes on one of Princeton’s beloved Tree Streets. This charming duplex has been lovingly spruced up over the years, and it shows. The living and dining rooms flaunt original details and gleaming hardwoods, while the cook-friendly kitchen shines with granite counters, sleek cabinets, and stainless steel appliances. There’s plenty of space for a table and chairs and a powder room is tucked in the corner. A quick step outside leads to a fenced-in backyard with a patio. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious front bedroom with tree-top views, a second well-sized bedroom, and a cozy third that’s just too cute. There’s a full basement for laundry, storage, and whatever else you need, plus central A/C to keep things cool. The third floor is helpful for extra space and all the windows were replaced. Just a block to Nassau Street, too!
