About This Home

As of July 2017

Location, education, commute to NYC and raising a family in West Windsor... Almost at the price as a townhome, but with 2/3 acres of lot! this house has it all! $50K+ worth of upgrades was put in by current owners to this 3BR, 2.1 bath Split Level in the most sought-after award winning WW-P district. Come see and appreciate the new kitchen and bathrooms, plus newer hardwood floor throughout. In addition to the 3BR on the upper level, it also has a den/study at the lower level which could be a 4th bedroom. You will enjoy the seasonal views of the half acre yard from the 220+ sqft, tile-floored sun room. Newly landscaped flower bed in the front yard compliments the mature blossoming trees. While tucked in the tranquil community of Colonial Park right next to the top-ranking High School South, this house is only 1.5 miles to Princeton Junction Train Station. The house has newer energy star windows and central A/C, gas heating, and central vacuum. Living Room features long, wide picture windows. Lofty vaulted ceiling spans across living and dining area. Kitchen and bathrooms were fully renovated in 2015. The kitchen boasts sophisticated cabinetry, quartz countertop, glass tile backsplash, high end stainless steel kitchen appliances, including Bosch dish washer, SS 4-door fridge, built-in microwave with cooking sensor. A few steps down to the lower level bring you to the cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace and French doors that open to study/den. Laundry, half bathroom, furnace, plus a newer hot water heater are also on the lower level. Large 2-car garage provides extra storage. Close to West Windsor Library, Rt 1, I95/I295, Rt 571. Convenient shopping, dining, and entertaining. It can meet all your requirements for a place to call 'Home'!
