Nestled on 1.38 wooded acres backing to preserved Stony Brook Watershed land, this well-maintained 4-bedroom Colonial offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. A slate-floored foyer welcomes you into the home and opens to a generously sized living room and formal dining room accented by classic chair rail. The updated eat-in kitchen features maple cabinetry, a center island, white appliances, and a discreetly tucked-away washer and dryer hidden behind cabinet doors. Adjacent to the kitchen, the inviting family room offers a brick wood-burning fireplace and direct access to both the backyard and attached garage. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private full bath and a bonus storage room, while three additional bedrooms and a hall bath provide ample space for family, guests, or a home office. Brand-new carpeting and a neutral color palette create a fresh, move-in-ready interior. Additional highlights include an oversized two-car attached garage, a full basement with abundant storage potential, and beautifully landscaped grounds featuring mature trees and seasonal flowering plantings. Enjoy the best of both worlds—serene woodland surroundings and a highly convenient location just 7 miles from Palmer Square in Princeton, with easy access to major commuting routes serving New York City, Philadelphia, and Trenton. Conveniently located to nearby private schools: Stuart Country Day School, The Pennington School, Chapin School, Princeton Day School, The Lawrenceville School.
