Property Description

Welcome to this truly one-of-a-kind 1890 Colonial, lovingly restored and thoughtfully expanded to offer the perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort in the heart of downtown Princeton. From the moment you arrive, the inviting wraparound porch sets the tone for this special home—an ideal place to relax, entertain, and enjoy the quintessential character of a classic Princeton residence.

Step inside to a warm and welcoming family room featuring an exposed brick wall and windows on two sides overlooking the porch, filling the space with natural light. The spacious dining room showcases many of the home's original architectural details, beautifully preserving its history and character.

The home was thoughtfully expanded at the rear by the current owner, creating an exceptional gourmet kitchen with beautiful modern finishes and a generous sitting area with direct access to the back patio. This seamless addition provides the open, comfortable living space today's lifestyle demands while maintaining the charm of the original home. A newly added full bathroom on the first floor also provides wonderful flexibility, allowing the dining room to easily serve as a first-floor bedroom, if desired.

Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms share a full bathroom, offering a practical and inviting private living area.

Outside is where this property truly sets itself apart. The expansive, open backyard is an extraordinary find in downtown Princeton, providing plenty of room for outdoor entertaining, gardening, play, or simply enjoying your own private oasis. A one-car garage and generous driveway provide additional parking—another rare convenience for a downtown location.

Just moments from Princeton's shops, restaurants, cultural attractions, Princeton University, and everything downtown has to offer, this beautifully restored Colonial offers a rare opportunity to enjoy historic architecture, modern updates, flexible living spaces, and an exceptional yard—all in one of Princeton's most sought-after locations. A truly special home that combines the best of Princeton's past and present.
