Enjoy this rustic, four-bedroom, three-bathroom, Civil War-era farmhouse just over a mile from the Princeton University campus and downtown Princeton, a short walk to Community Park Elementary, with Princeton High an easy bike ride away. Beautiful, secluded 2.25-acre grounds, with forest on three sides and the Mountain Lakes Nature Preserve right next door. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a king-size bed and private bath, and two additional bedrooms have queen beds and share a jack-and-jill bathroom. The first floor includes a smaller bedroom/study with a twin XL bed, a third full bathroom, a very large living room with a fireplace, a dining room, and an eat-in kitchen. There's window air-conditioning in every room, and a washer and dryer in the basement. The house has a large deck with a fire bowl and grill, plus an attached garage and plenty of off-street parking. And a detached tiny house on the grounds, with windows on three sides looking into the woods, makes a wonderful home office or guest room. Our house sits on two and a quarter acres of sprawling lawn and 100+ year-old sugar maples, oaks, and pines. Initially built in the 1860s and expanded with a large living room and master bedroom in the 1950s, it adjoins the nature preserve, great for trail running and walking right out the back door.

The best of both worlds. .. This historic farmhouse, built in the mid-1800's, is a 15 minute walk to Palmer Square, a 10 minute walk to Community Park school and a five minute bike ride to Princeton High. Yet is set on over two acres back off the road in a gorgeous county setting. A two-story addition in the 1950's added a spacious living room with master bedroom and bath upstairs. The kitchen has all upgraded stainless steel appliances, and there are hardwood floors throughout the house. Large windows allow plenty of sunlight and views of the beautiful and spacious grounds. Large closets and storage spaces are plentiful. A back deck allows for outdoor dining with a view of the gorgeous yard and mature trees. The roof, furnace and water heater were all replaced five years ago.
