This Princeton charmer is the unicorn you've been searching for! Cozy and bursting with character, this Colonial is just waiting for your personal touch.

The spacious eat-in kitchen is adjacent to an oversized laundry and mudroom, which also houses a full bath. Upstairs, three bedrooms and another bright hall bath offer restful retreats, all bathed in natural light from the many windows. This home also enjoys the benefits of a recent energy retrofit with new insulation, new on-demand heating and hot water system, and new plumbing. No need to worry about parking; the shared driveway has room for three cars. Just seven blocks from Nassau Street and close to the library, coffee shops, favorite restaurants, and schools. There’s even a playground with a splashpad right across the street!
