About this home

Nestled in a park-like setting overlooking the D & R Canal in historic Griggstown, this circa 1825 colonial farmhouse has been gloriously restored and expertly renovated. Charming antique features such as wide plank pumpkin pine floors, exposed hand-hewn wood beams and dual covered porches are coupled with updated amenities to suit the most modern lifestyle, including a designer cherry, granite and stainless steel kitchen with breakfast area and walk-in pantry. A large, welcoming living room, spacious dining room, powder room and laundry round out the main level. Upstairs, 3-4 corner bedrooms, the master containing a spiral staircase leading to lofted office space; two full baths and walk-up attic. An idyllic yard with mature trees, cottage garden and beautifully landscaped patio is perfect for outdoor entertaining. Detached two-car garage with workshop, barn and potting shed. Escape from it all ~~~ less than 8 miles from Palmer Square, with convenient access to all of the Princeton Area's many attractions.
