About This Home

As of March 2025

Here's a Brandon Farms single-family home that’s pristinely presented and perfectly positioned just minutes from shopping, top-rated Hopewell schools, and neighboring Princeton's vibrant dining and cultural scene. Warm and inviting, it offers a thoughtfully designed layout with four spacious bedrooms and a first-floor home office. Sunlight pours into the open-concept kitchen through triple skylights, creating a bright and cheerful gathering space. Granite countertops, sleek stainless steel appliances, and a casual dining area make it the heart of the home, seamlessly flowing into the family room, where a wood-burning fireplace adds cozy warmth. Fabulous wood flooring enhances the living and dining rooms, while the fenced backyard is ready for summer celebrations with a spacious patio and a shed/playhouse. Upstairs, plush neutral carpeting softens each of the four bedrooms. The expansive main suite is a true retreat, featuring a charming sitting area, a striking arched window that invites natural light, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bathroom. An updated hall bath serves the additional bedrooms, and a powder room is conveniently located off the foyer. The laundry room is efficiently designed with direct access to the oversized two-car garage, keeping everything organized. On one of Brandon Farm's best-loved streets, with a sidewalk that meanders to the clubhouse, pool, and all the neighborhood’s beloved resort-style amenities, you won’t want to miss it!
