In Montgomery Hills, a community prized for its easy access to downtown Princeton and the bustling new Montgomery Promenade, this spotless Barrymore-model townhouse offers more finished space than other nearby units. Polished hardwood floors and an airy floor plan lend an appealing sense of volume and light, while architectural columns subtly define the open living and dining areas. The kitchen has been modernized with ultra-sleek new appliances, stylish gray granite countertops and recessed lighting. Sliders in the breakfast area invite you out to the patio, while a gas fireplace occupies a cozy corner of the family room. Hardwood floors continue upstairs, where the primary suite feels especially generous with a cathedral ceiling, two walk-in closets and a private bath done in soothing colors. A second bedroom and a versatile loft provide additional space to use as you please: home office, reading nook, guest quarters, etc. The finished basement expands the home’s flexibility with a recessed media alcove, extra space for recreation or fitness and loads of storage. Recent improvements - including a new washer and dryer in the upstairs laundry room - add welcome peace of mind. This home offers comfort, convenience and community amenities, including tennis courts and playgrounds, within the top-notch Montgomery School District. Some photos are virtually staged.
