Property Description
Nestled on a cul de sac exactly one mile from Nassau Street is a special Princeton property full of personality and pedigree. Only 2 families have been lucky enough to call this place home, the first being relatives of the architect Alexander Perry Morgan. Yes, the same lineage associated with nearby Constitution Hill. The house is classic in its proportions and layout, offering much more than just great bones. Beautiful hardwood floors are in terrific condition throughout and built-ins are abundant. A highlight of the gracious living room is an elegantly bowed wall of windows overlooking the side lawn, sheltered by mature plantings along a berm. A cozy den, the dining room and the modern-sized, open kitchen all gravitate around a wide bar/butler’s pantry - perfect for parties! A Great Room addition is the go-to spot come evening with a fireplace set into a paneled wall. Four pleasant bedrooms include the main suite, which could easily absorb under-utilized space in the hallway for a walk-in closet or roomier bath. Two top floor offices provide quiet work at home options. Additionally, self-sufficient lower level accommodations, complete with a full kitchen and private entry, will host an au pair or visiting relatives in comfort. A chance to customize a classic Princeton residence to suit your signature style!
