17 Springdale Rd, Princeton, NJ 08540
About this home
On the edge of Princeton's coveted Institute for Advanced Study neighborhood, a vintage Rolf Bauhan designed colonial stands proud, the perfect scale for today's living and in one of Princeton's finest locations. Original detail exists throughout much of the house, with formal living and dining rooms, a wood paneled study, and an updated kitchen. The family room was a smart conversion by the current owners, giving the home that sought after space by today's buyer. Upstairs, a bathroom dedicated to the master has been tastefully redone, while four other bedrooms share a combined three additional baths. Finished space in the lower level is a welcomed bonus, in addition to storage and laundry spaces. The yard is as quaint as the house itself, with stone wall and patio, mature plantings and a nice lawn space. Truly a classic charmer, this property is within close proximity to downtown, Princeton University, Marquand Park, McCarter Theater and the train. It won't last long. .. come see!
