Overview

This rare four bedroom colonial situated within Princeton’s Littlebrook neighborhood is located a short stroll from the restaurants and shops of the Princeton Shopping Center as well as downtown Princeton, Princeton University and the rail links to both Manhattan and Philadelphia. Despite its proximity to the hustle and bustle of this lively college town, this tree lined property is an oasis of calm and privacy. Designed with a focus on both entertaining and intimate daily life, the kitchen and adjacent family room serves as the heart of the home. Anchored by a substantial butcher-block island, the kitchen boasts a suite of high-end appliances—including a French-door refrigerator—and expansive workspace. Adults can entertain in the kitchen while kids watch a movie or read a book in the family room or study at the office station. The gracious living room is anchored by a fireplace and can host movie night or upscale parties. The dining room is the perfect size for family dinners or the more formal occasion. Immediately off the kitchen is an additional pantry and laundry area and mudroom combination so the dirty clothes don’t have to make their way into the house. The mudroom opens into the oversized two car attached garage with plenty of room for extra storage, bikes and more. The upper level is a masterclass in comfort, featuring four generously proportioned bedrooms adorned with hardwood flooring and ample storage. The primary bedroom offers ample closet space, a private bathroom suite and views of the beautifully landscaped rear yard. Bedrooms two and three are supported by the full hall bath while the fourth bedroom is ensuite and has an over sized closet or study nook and a third full bath on the second floor. The incredibly large basement has been set up as a teen lounge, replete with carpeting and furniture with ample storage areas and room for future growth of finished space. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the rear yard is a true outdoor sanctuary. The enclosed porch at the rear of the house is an Adirondack-inspired screened in gallery providing a tranquil vantage point over the manicured garden and lawn—perfect for twilight cocktails or morning reflection. The spacious/expansive patio area serves as the base for the barbecue and an additional outdoor entertaining area. The hot tub is in a private nook in the rear yard, perfect for a quiet moment of relaxation. The yard was recently planted with privacy trees to ensure green borders year round.
