Overview
On a quiet neighborhood street in Montgomery Township, just minutes from downtown Princeton, this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath colonial home offers the ideal balance of privacy and convenience. Perfectly set on a generous 2.9 acre lot, the property extends into the woods, where a charming shed awaits.
Recent thoughtful updates provide peace of mind for years to come, including a brand new septic system (9/2025), newer natural gas heating and central air with upgraded 200 amp service (2024), a gas fireplace insert (2023), roof replacement (2022), and a newer well tank (2022).
The home sits back from the street with a long driveway and two car garage providing ample parking. Inside, the main level features a welcoming living room with fireplace, office with sitting area, a half bath, formal dining room, and an eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances and gas cooking. Upstairs, the primary suite includes its own bath, while three additional bedrooms share a full hall bathroom. A walk up attic offers abundant storage and there is a partially finished basement that has been waterproofed.
Enjoy Montgomery Township’s top rated schools and tranquil setting, with easy access to Princeton’s shops, dining, and cultural attractions, plus commuter routes to New York and Philadelphia. Please note: the rear yard was seeded after the recent septic installation; the digitally enhanced grass in the rear yard is for illustrative purposes; photo showing lot lines is approximate buyer to do own due diligence.
