About This Home

As of April 2022

Views of the beautiful, acre-plus yard are a true highlight of this Princeton Colonial. Separately fenced from the surrounding lawn, an in-ground pool is ready to make upcoming summers the best yet. A bonus third bay of the attached garage is ideal for storing equipment and games. The home is full of large gathering spaces and 4 bedrooms. The skylit family room runs the depth of the house with sliders letting in even more light. As is usually preferred, the dining and living rooms flow freely together and the central kitchen is generous in size. A versatile trio of rooms, complete with a fireplace and full bath, are set to the side, presenting the option of a first floor suite or an ideal work-from-home situation. Just like the first floor, real wood parquet is found upstairs, where 3 bedrooms share a hall bath and the main suite has a private bath. . A vast full basement means storage will never be a concern and endless possibilities. With this property, you’ll have the opportunity to customize bathrooms and finishes to your liking, while enjoying all the benefits of a glorious yard within the Johnson Park School district. Chapin School is a mere half-mile away, further expanding the educational options.
