25 OLD GEORGETOWN RD Princeton, NJ 08540

Enjoy all the character and quietude of an authentic 18th century farmstead with none of the toil. The land is a manageable 1.66 acres and the freshly painted barn that once housed animals now accommodates a workshop for your hobbies, a home office and protected parking. A flagstone patio and fenced kitchen garden bask in the country atmosphere, which is actually just 7 miles from the heart of downtown Princeton. Looking at the crisp clapboard exterior with exposed stone and covered entries, it’s hard to tell where the original 1720 home ends and the newer addition begins. The living room is a great place to gather around a fire after a big meal in the dining room, where deep cupboards are tucked behind yet another fireplace. Wide floorboards and overhead beams are unmistakable signs that this is the old wing of the house and these striking features proudly display the rough edges and aged patina of wood cut and placed by hand. While the kitchen was recently renovated to high standards, great care was taken to preserve the existing properties of the space. The cooking hearth and mantel remain, now surrounded by flawless quartz countertops and appliances by Wolf and Bosch. Three upstairs bedrooms are larger than you might expect, including one with a dressing alcove and another with a cozy study and full bath creating a suite. The hall bath is roomy enough for comfortable sharing. An attached shed and a useful basement with Bilco doors serve your storage needs with ease.
