About This Home

As of June 2023

This classic 3-bedroom, 2-bath beauty affirms Princeton's reputation for large, stately properties - and this one can be Yours! An elegant floor plan is enhanced by high ceilings, unique features, and solid construction. Living and dining rooms boast hardwood floors and offer an abundance of natural light. The large kitchen (brand-new dishwasher and a newer frig!) flows effortlessly into the spacious family room, featuring a cozy brick fireplace. A perfect set-up for entertaining (or for quiet solitude!) Another beautifully-paneled living space is discovered in the full, useable basement - which stays dry thanks to the sealed foundation and newer sump pump. Lots of potential in this lower living area - your choice on how to utilize it! Not that you need more storage space, but the walk-up attic offers it! Outdoor living areas include a fully-fenced back yard with fire-pit, offering a private haven. An inviting side yard adds even more potential for enjoyment. Fresh interior and exterior paint have given a face-lift to this lovely home. So many additional updates and upgrades: Brand new Trane furnace (with humidifier) and AC unit; 11 new windows; new sump pump in 2019; updates in bathrooms - so much added value! This is going to feel like Home - come make it Yours! Showings start on Monday, April 10.
