At the intersection of timeless design and modern living, 33 Sergeant Street stands as a rare offering in Princeton’s coveted Riverside neighborhood. Designed by the acclaimed Hillier Architects and completely renovated with a new, modern kitchen this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhouse blends thoughtful architecture with in-town walkability — just moments from the University, Palmer Square, and everything downtown has to offer. Step inside to discover 2,200 square feet of light-filled interiors, oversized windows, balconys, refined finishes, and a floorplan that flows with intention. From the serene bluestone terrace and charming front porch to the dual-zone HVAC and generous storage, every element has been curated for comfort and simplicity. Your hardest decision of the day will be to sit on your private balcony or serene in-town garden terrace. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street with sidewalks leading directly to the best of Princeton, you can park your car in your attached garage and stroll to the University, shops, schools and local parks. This residence offers the kind of lifestyle that rarely comes to market — and never lasts long.
Dramatic and elegant Hillier designed Borough Townhouse. It is one block from Nassau, short walk to Town Center, yet located on secluded almost Private Street. Easy living with single home features such as 2-car garage, basement, two porches and 2 zones AC/heating and a very pretty Blue Stone terrace with a delightful mini garden. Immaculately maintained, very light and bright, beautifully painted just move in and enjoy! Completely gutted and renovated in 1996.
