You don't want to miss this well-maintained, charming Victorian-style home in one of Princeton's most convenient and historic locations. Attractive curb appeal and colorful landscaping are on full display in this 3-bedroom, 2-bath beauty wrapped in low-maintenance cement board siding and set on a classic brick street. Experience a wonderful blend of old and new. Original woodwork, a wood-paneled staircase, hardwood flooring, stained-glass windows, original door hardware, a tin ceiling in the kitchen, and the original tiled cast-iron fireplace create classic character, while thoughtful modernizations include updated mechanicals (wiring, plumbing, furnace, hot water heater, and central air), light fixtures and ceiling fans, a remodeled main-floor bathroom, and a fully renovated upstairs bathroom with heated floors, laundry, and a walk-in shower. More recent improvements include a new fence (2020), new roofs on both the house and garage, and a gas burner insert for the fireplace-all completed in 2023. The high-ceiling basement offers excellent workrooms and storage. The 0.27-acre lot provides a nice yard while remaining easy to maintain. Location is a true standout. This home sits on historic brick-lined South Euclid Avenue, just a short distance from Zearing Park (72 acres with ball fields, soccer fields, new playground, walking path, pond, and Barkley Dog Park), Lincoln Elementary School, and Princeton High School. It's also conveniently close to the hospital, the Bureau County Courthouse, and downtown Main Street shopping and dining. This is a classic Princeton home with real character and solid improvements. Cash or conventional loans only and selling "As Is" because sellers moved out of the state. Make an appointment to check this one out!!
