Today this home is available and priced reasonably enough to allow the next owners to add their own history. With a circular asphalt driveway the home sits back away from the road yet is walking distance to town. A location that gives opportunities for possible home businesses or a place to raise a family. The home has a main level with plenty of living space. A second level has 3 bedrooms with one of the rooms having a built in "bunk bed" with room for two beds. Home has many thermal windows and a fireplace in family room. The enclosed porch faces to the East, although not heated, there is plenty of sunshine and a great place to greet guests. A survey was recently done and is available for viewing. The property has a easement along the far West side. A final survey will be done to split the land from parcel to East so lot sizes listed are approximate . We see lots of opportunities in this homes location. City zoning is B2. Zoning and a buyers use should be confirmed by City of Princeton Zoning office. Lots of possibilities await the next owners. Easy to show. Come look.
