About this home

This Colonial is right at home among the significant period properties lining the canal of historic Griggstown. New cedar siding outside and a palette of soft-toned colors paired with wide pumpkin pine flooring inside are in keeping with its heritage. High ceilings, abundant natural light and refreshing cross-breezes enliven both floors. The front-to-back entry hall opens via French doors to the spacious living room, with a brick fireplace framed by custom bookcases. The up-to-date kitchen is fitted with Corian countertops, a custom pantry and tall, double-sided breakfast bar. Beyond the adjoining dining area is a powder room and a family room/den. Upstairs is an oversized master bedroom, two additional bedrooms and a renovated bath. A quiet, private setting of one acre and a Princeton address.
