About this home
Newly updated across three levels, yet still a perfect fit along the charming in-town street where period homes flaunt deep front porches and sidewalks lead the way to schools, downtown and the bustling shopping center. A freshly paved driveway, pretty plantings and new upper windows enhance the curb appeal of the brick and shingle home said to have regularly hosted Albert Einstein. Inside, original hardwood floors are refinished to perfection and French doors sport new matte black hardware that coordinates with modern lighting throughout. The all-new LG-equipped kitchen is a real highlight with stunning quartz atop warm wood lower cabinetry and glossy tile gleaming against bright white uppers. New laundry appliances are a handy addition to the naturally lit powder room and look right at home with the black-and-white palette. Further details, like the living room’s wood accent wall, weave in touches of contemporary style. Upstairs, a flexible sitting room outside three corner bedrooms and a hall bath can be anything from a casual TV lounge to a study space. Two more bedrooms and a strikingly tiled bath occupy the top floor. Multiple mini-split A/C units allow for individualized climate control and the full basement is spacious, spotless and ready to serve! With a separate ADU currently under construction beyond the rear yard, this is efficient in-town living at its best. 3/10 of a mile to Nassau Street, 4/10 of a mile to Princeton Shopping Center and 5/10 of a mile to Princeton High School…come see! Single family home, which will be delivered under condo ownership. Some images have been virtually staged....
