Description

Charming remodeled farmhouse, originally built around 1917. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and two closets. There are 3 additional bedrooms as well upstairs plus a small room that could be an office, and a hall bathroom. Wood floors and lots of windows are particularly attractive, as is the family room with a walk out to a lovely back brick patio overlooking the stream (no flood zone) and beautiful woods. The living room has a wood-burning fireplace for those cool evenings...Charming remodeled farmhouse, originally built around 1917. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and two closets. There are 3 additional bedrooms as well upstairs plus a small room that could be an office, and a hall bathroom. Wood floors and lots of windows are particularly attractive, as is the family room with a walk out to a lovely back brick patio overlooking the stream (no flood zone) and beautiful woods. The living room has a wood-burning fireplace for those cool evenings and built in bookshelves ! The kitchen has a large eat-in area, plus you also have a good sized dining room. Almost 1.8 acres of lovely land, both grassy areas to sit in, and woods for privacy. Needs some TLC. Priced accordingly. House is being sold as is, inspections are for informational purposes only. Only minutes from downtown Princeton provides the peace and privacy of a country estate, yet the convenience of downtown so close by. Award-winning Princeton Schools!
