Description

On picturesque land with a detached studio, this enchanting mid-century modern A-frame boasts four bedrooms, three full baths, a dining room, living room, and family room. Large glass windows in the public rooms of this 1954 architectural gem frame the stunning scenery - a harmonious blend of expansive open yard and majestic, towering trees. While the house and detached studio offer immense potential, both are in need of repair, and the property is being sold strictly 'as-is' with the value mostly in the land. However, with the right touch, this could become an extraordinary home, blending vintage design with modern conveniences. Currently serviced by a septic system, there's the potential for sewer line access across the Great Rd, albeit requiring an easement, which the seller is willing to consider (at the buyer’s sole expense). Situated a mere 3.3 miles from Nassau Street and in close proximity to some of the area's finest schools, this location offers both convenience and serenity. If you're ready to embark on a journey of renovation and expansion in a truly remarkable setting, schedule your appointment today. Don't miss out on the opportunity to make this property your own and enjoy life in Princeton.

    "To get to bus station is a long , over populated area and the majority of people walk but a lot of cars in a very over populated and mixture of all kinds of people. Some very nice, and some very rude and feel they own the streets! I really hate Princeton and don’t recommend it. To get to train station is now a drive and to The Dinky is a longer walk than bus stop. And everything costs money, they built decks to make money and they also make you get permits to park. I was blessed enough to have a driveway where I was, but all in all: I rate it a good=25 & bad=75%-NOT VERY GOOD! Must rate Police & EMT IS A GOOD-100% -very fair and also courts are fair majority of time"
