About this home

Light-hearted rooms with the refined good taste you'd expect to find in a builder's own home fill this expanded Cape, set on a large, fenced lot with a swimming pool. Modern-day spaces are accented with maple floors, decorative trussed ceilings, 4 fireplaces, and built-ins galore. A spacious kitchen offers all the bells and whistles, and opens into the great room addition with zones for casual dining, sitting fireside or watching TV. A side entry contains an office that could convert to a mudroom if desired. A study and cozy den are side-by-side across from a delightful living room with gas fireplace and warmly wainscoted formal dining room. One of four bedrooms is on the main level, next to a half bath. Above, the master suite features a soothing marble bath, while two other bedrooms with cozy nooks share the hall bath. The pool and patio nestle amid a lushly landscaped yard. On a much-loved street that offers easy access to downtown Princeton and charming Hopewell Borough, with a Princeton address, this one ticks every box!
