Enjoy this rustic, four-bedroom, three-bathroom, Civil War-era farmhouse just over a mile from the Princeton University campus and downtown Princeton and a short walk to Community Park Elementary, with Princeton High an easy bike ride away. Beautiful, secluded 2.25-acre grounds, with forest on three sides and the Mountain Lakes Nature Preserve right next door.
Upstairs, the master bedroom has a king-size bed and private bath, and two additional bedrooms have queen beds and share a jack-and-jill bathroom. The first floor includes a smaller bedroom/study with a twin XL bed, a third full bathroom, a very large living room with fireplace, a dining room, and an eat-in kitchen. There's window air-conditioning in every room, and a washer and dryer in the basement.
The house has a large deck with a fire bowl and grill, plus an attached garage and plenty of off-street parking. And a detached tiny house on the grounds with windows on three sides looking into the woods makes a wonderful home office or guest room.
Our house sits on two and a quarter acres of sprawling lawn and 100+ year-old sugar maples, oaks, and pines. Initially built in the 1860s and expanded with a large living room and master bedroom in the 1950s, it adjoins the nature preserve great for trail running and walking right out the back door.

First month's rent plus a security deposit equal to one months' rent due at lease signing. No smoking inside. Renter's insurance required. Pets considered on a case-by-case basis.
