About this home

Presenting easy single-level living on a sprawling 1.38-ace lot, large enough for all your outdoor endeavors, from sports to wildlife-watching to gardening. There’s even a separately fenced area ideal for vegetables or a chicken coop! A brown thumb is no problem though with Terhune Orchards right around the corner and the varied dining options of Princeton directly down the road. The house, clad in cheerful maintenance-free shingles, is delightfully open with newly refinished hardwood floors in the living room and dining area. A stone fireplace, conveniently converted to gas, anchors these free-flowing spaces, while a broad bay window welcomes in loads of light when the insulating shades are up. French doors introduce a family room with skylights punctuating the peaked ceiling. The sizable, open kitchen has real wood cabinetry and a butcher block breakfast perch. Casement windows are abundant in all 3 bedrooms, again with freshly refinished hardwood floors. One bedroom is chock full of built-ins and another offers a cedar closet and a roomy private bath, where natural light pours in from above. The laundry is handy on the main level, leaving the expansive basement dedicated to storage. Good news! 2020 Septic System.

EP-2

Environmental Protection 2 District

The Environmental Protection 2 district is designed for low intensity uses primarily in the northwest area of the municipality where poor water yields and strata for septic systems dictate large lot development in an area of little or no public infrastructure and severe environmental constraints, including but not limited to, a seasonal high water table, shallow depth to bedrock, and steep slopes along the Stony Brook. Further, the purpose of the EP-2 district is to protect the environmental resources and qualities of this area, maintain the rural character of roads and scenic views, and retain farmland. The EP-2 designation is contrasted with the EP-1 district by being underlain with the Brunswick Shale or Stockton Sandstone geologic formations as depicted in the adopted Master Plan which yield slightly better water supplies. Both the EP-1 and EP-2 districts, though poorly suited for development, are exceptional areas for non-irrigated agriculture. Because of this last factor, clustering of residential units is preferred whether under the provisions of this section or 428.
