About This Home
As of January 2025Price reduced on this home that you don't want to miss! -- A majestic 3-story home on 2.3 acres built in 1878 by Richard M. Skinner, a prominent Princeton lawyer, Circuit Court Judge, and mayor of Princeton. The wide porch across the front of the home has scrolled arches, and a large bay window on the side adds to the home's charm. This home is known to Princeton residents as "the home with the deer," because of the iron deer that was imported from Italy in 1896 by Richard M. Skinner. The inside of the home is spectacular with beautiful oak hardwood floors and six fireplaces throughout the home. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with new cabinets, a center island, and all new stainless steel appliances. 6 bedrooms and 2 baths make up the 2nd floor, plus two additional rooms which were known as the maid's quarters. The 3rd floor has all new windows plus 3 rooms ready to carpet and a full bath. A gardener's house in the back matches the main dwelling but with a unique roof design, and a 2-car garage is also in the back. A great feature of this home is the 2.3 acres of land that goes with this home. The back yard is large, plus a grassy field out back with a large work shop is included, giving the buyer all kinds of options. Opportunities like this don't come along very often, so come see today if this is the home you've been waiting for!
