In a neighborhood well known for spectacular homes along pretty winding roads, this shingled beauty's irresistible charm stands apart. The freshly painted exterior edged with a white picket fence looks like a Nantucket seaside cottage that's been expanded and enhanced under an expert eye. The house was originally built to… Read More mimic a period colonial and every tasteful detail is spot on, from the working shutters to the antique wood floors. A later addition added airy new spaces to complement existing cozy rooms, resulting in a captivating interior like no other. A study lined with built-ins and a sunny living room both have fireplaces, but the substantial gas fireplace in the dining room steals the spotlight and makes holiday meals unforgettable.

Everything from the walk-in pantry to the artisan tile over the 6-burner Viking range was carefully considered.

More hangout space exists downstairs, along with storage and hobby areas. The sunny main suite offers an organized walk-in closet across from a roomy white bath, while across the hall, two bedrooms share a cleverly configured, skylit bath with a hidden laundry chute. The third floor offers extra privacy for another light-filled bedroom suite, plus untapped attic space. The driveway offers plenty of shady parking and, behind carriage-style garage doors, EV charging is ready and waiting. Last but not least, the irrigated backyard with bluestone patio is a private paradise with a darling playhouse tucked into the corner. Adjacent to the Hun School, and only 1.8 miles from Nassau Street and Princeton University, the location is one of Princeton's favorites. Read Less
