Property Description
A wonderful opportunity to own property in the heart of Princeton and it's vibrant Witherspoon-Jackson Historic District. This property was completely renovated and updated under the guidance of one of Princeton's premier architects. The east-facing front porch--great for morning yoga or evening reflection-- overlooks the front yard filled with colorful spring flowers and strawberry plants. Inside, the large living room is a great space for entertaining and relaxing. Wired for sound with in-wall speakers in the living and dining room, just set up your stereo and you're ready to go. The dining room can seat a large group and is open to the updated kitchen featuring solid counter tops (granite, subway time backsplash) with breakfast bar, newer cabinets, farm sink and stainless appliances. Ceiling recessed, track, and two skylights bring ample lumination to prep tasks and dining. The restored hardwood floors tie the living and dining rooms together and lead to the tiled floor in the kitchen and mud/laundry room. The adjacent mudroom has ample storage space and a washer/dryer combo. An updated bath is conveniently located for guests and post-outdoor gardening clean-up. Upstairs is a large main bedroom with lots of closet and storage space and a guest bedroom that may serve double duty as the home office. The large hall bath is updated with a pedestal sink and wainscoating. There's plenty of outdoor entertainment and gardening space in the rear yard which has a nice shed to store equipment. You can also relax on the patio and enjoy the property's southern light. In hot weather come inside and enjoy the central air conditioning. There's parking for one car in the driveway shared with the adjacent property. The potential for permitted parking (currently in one of the town's lots) should you need additional. You won't need the car given this property's location just four blocks from Nassau Street, Princeton University and Seminary, shops, restaurants, public library, Community Park Elementary School and the towns extensive recreation area, Community Park, with playing fields, tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, and an expansive public swimming pool complex! This is a rare opportunity to own a property in Princeton.
