Types of apartment in Princeton, NJ

Princeton, NJ apartments near downtown and around Palmer Square often sit in older brick or clapboard buildings with narrow fronts, porches, and trimmed windows. Some are carved out of large colonial or Victorian houses, so layouts can feel less uniform than newer apartments. You can also find small apartment buildings and mixed-use spaces near Nassau Street. Inside, many units keep wood floors, built-in shelves, and smaller kitchens, while updated ones may add in-unit laundry and central air.

North Princeton and the Princeton Shopping Center area have more garden-style apartments and townhouse-style rentals with parking lots, brick facades, and simpler exteriors. Out by Route 1 and near Princeton Junction, apartments often look newer, with larger footprints, siding or stucco, and more standard floor plans. In the western side near Princeton Battlefield and in the Riverside area, houses for rent can include detached colonials and split-level homes with yards and driveways. Older apartments can have more charm and less storage, while newer ones often trade character for easier layouts and amenities.
