About This Home
As of September 2018Beautifully updated after a comprehensive renovation by Baxter Construction who spared no expense in bringing this property back to life less than 10 years ago --- this traditional and understated exterior has all modern amenities and features on the inside. A dramatic, open, eat-in gourmet kitchen highlights the first floor. Throughout the freshly painted house, you will find state-of-the art bathrooms, updated systems, and more. Four bedrooms in all and three and one half baths are accentuated by vintage detailing and original charm. A balcony and a blue stone patio overlook the storybook yard with pond, mature flowering trees, and open lawn. The pool was rebuilt in 2007 as well and is the perfect place to lounge on a summer day. An attached garage, central air conditioning, and a detached storage shed are additional practical elements. Only 3 miles from town, but with a feeling of total detachment, 565 Pretty Brook Rd is a unique combination perfectly described as the best of both worlds, new and old. Johnson Park School and only minutes to downtown Princeton...come see!
