Bigger, brighter and beautifully renovated, this end-townhouse is as good as it gets at upscale Governors Lane. The garage lends an extra level of privacy to the brick courtyard, while the formal side entry properly welcomes guests. Inside, a wall was wisely removed during the stunning kitchen renovation, creating an open area for communal cooking and casual living. Quartz and marble surround a big apron sink and Thermador appliances, including a 6-burner range. Custom shutters and fresh paint add to the polished look. You may choose to use the adjoining space as a family room, a breakfast room or a combination of the two. Either way, the nearby living room is plenty big enough for a second dining table, if desired. Cheerful wallpaper and a gas fireplace certainly make it worthy of special occasions! To everyone’s delight, all closets and all baths are organized and updated, even the coat closet and powder room. The primary suite level is both luxurious and flexible with a modern soaking tub, towel warmer and more in the bath off the bedroom. With a second fireplace and another pretty bath, use the room across the hall as a sophisticated study or supremely appointed guest accommodations, if visitors are frequent. The top floor has a spacious bathroom with a thick marble vanity and tub situated between two big bedrooms, each with a window seat and desk alcove. Head all the way down the open skylit staircase to find tons of finished space for play or hobbies with plenty of storage to stow everything away when it’s time to tidy up. This location is ideal for quick trips to Princeton Shopping Center, drop-offs at Princeton Charter School and easy access to an array of professional offices.
