About This Home

As of October 2019

Within strolling distance to Johnson Park School and Greenway Meadows Park, the Brookstone neighborhood is beloved for its close proximity to the center of Princeton, large, tree-lined parcels, and established homes. Encircled with a parklike 2.34 acre lot, this well-built 4 bedroom has all the space, solidity, and light necessary to create your dream layout. Hardwoods and a generous footprint outline a front-to-back, fireside living room, formal dining room, study with built-in bookcases, and a pretty 3-season sunroom that opens to the back patio. A sunny, easy-care kitchen delights with a bay window-bright breakfast area, sparkling Corian counters, ample cabinetry with pull-outs, and an adjoining mudroom/laundry room with its own entrance, making it a snap to load in groceries. Four wonderfully-sized bedrooms and 2.5 baths include the master suite, which hosts sweet dreams with double closets and private bath. Handling energy concerns are a standby-house generator, 2nd floor tilt-in windows, and an energy makeover within the last 10 years.
