About This Home
Historic downtown charm meets modern convenience! This warm and welcoming home has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, completely updated systems and a large, detached garage! Immerse yourself in timeless beauty with this lovely Craftsman-style residence, perfectly situated on a premier side street in the absolute heart of Princeton. Located just blocks from the University campus, this architectural gem captivates with dual front porches, a stately slate roof, and a custom paver driveway leading to a rare downtown luxury: a detached garage. The private back yard features an intimate slate stone patio and wood deck, ideal for effortless alfresco entertaining. Inside, the versatile layout includes a private-entry guest suite that is currently used as a den but can seamlessly reintegrate to expand the main living quarters. The refined living room boasts rich hardwood floors, elegant French doors, and a classic wood-burning fireplace, while a functional kitchen connects to an oversized laundry/mudroom. Upstairs, two sun-drenched corner bedrooms share a beautifully appointed hall bath, while the spacious primary bedroom serves as a dedicated sanctuary with its own en-suite bath and custom closet. Over $100K in infrastructure upgrades (2023-2026) including updated electric, HVAC, hot water heater, chimney, roof, lighting, and a fully waterproofed basement system. Experience unparalleled walkability to Nassau Street’s fine dining, boutique markets and shops, and premier university events. Should you need some additional space, a renowned local architect completed three expansion options to enlarge the home. This sweet home is a true gem in the heart of Princeton! Sale is subject to Seller finding suitable housing.
