    Originally the model home for Governors Lane, this elegant 4-bedroom townhouse is soaked in natural light and filled with timeless architectural detail. Assigned to highly sought-after Littlebrook Elementary, the home features oversized windows, bay windows, and multiple exposures that brighten the gracious interior, highlighting rich wood floors, crown molding, and beautifully proportioned living and dining rooms. The white kitchen offers a large center island, Sub-Zero refrigerator, double wall ovens, built-ins, and a breakfast area opening to the private brick courtyard. Upstairs are two spacious bedroom suites, including a light-filled primary with fireplace, walk-in closet, oversized bath, and soaking tub. The top floor adds two sun-filled bedrooms and a shared bath, while the large unfinished basement provides exceptional storage and future potential. With the roof replaced just one year ago, this home also offers added peace of mind, all within one of Princeton’s most prestigious communities and just a short walk to Princeton Shopping Center, with its popular shops, dining, and everyday conveniences.
