Description

A sunny corner lot directly across from long-loved Riverside School, one block from Nassau Street and 2 blocks from the edge of Princeton University campus is an ideal spot to settle down and immerse yourself in the town 'n gown lifestyle for which Princeton is known. While the location is stellar, it's just one of many reasons this home will top your must-see list. Newer than most houses in the established neighborhood, it has a modern floor plan with lofty rooms. Hardwood floors, wainscoting and crown molding lend traditional appeal and show pride of craftsmanship. The handsome kitchen is highly efficient in its current layout, but could easily be enlarged by incorporating the breakfast area, which flows out to a brick patio. A fireplace keeps the openly adjoining cathedral family room feeling grounded and cozy. The finished basement was cleverly designed to include sliding screens that separate an office from the rec room. Keep them open to expand space for creative play or close them for a distraction-free work or relaxation zone. Four bright, cheerful bedrooms comprise the upper level, including one with a pretty arched window and the main suite with multiple closets, both reach-in and walk-in. The main and hall baths are each finished in a timeless style that feels forever fresh. Move right in and savor Princeton living at its best!

    "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"
