HISTORIC CHARACTER, OVER 4,000 SQ FT & APPROXIMATELY 1.4 BEAUTIFUL ACRES IN THE HEART OF PRINCETON! This distinctive ALL-BRICK HOME offers the kind of space, character and setting that is increasingly hard to find, all within the sought-after PRINCETON SCHOOL DISTRICT.

From the moment you arrive, this property feels special. DOUBLE GATES, generous ROAD FRONTAGE and established landscaping create an impressive setting, while the beautiful ROCKING CHAIR FRONT PORCH invites you to slow down and enjoy the charm of this early 1900s home. The approximately 1.4-ACRE lot offers gorgeous established FLOWERS, GARDENS and outdoor spaces with plenty of room to enjoy, entertain, garden and make the property your own.

Inside, you'll find OVER 4,000 SQ FT filled with CHARACTER and a wonderfully versatile floor plan. The UPDATED ISLAND KITCHEN features QUARTZ COUNTERTOPS, TILE BACKSPLASH and a spacious everyday DINING AREA. A separate FORMAL DINING ROOM provides additional space for entertaining and special gatherings.

The home offers 4 BEDROOMS along with a LARGE FAMILY ROOM, ADDITIONAL LIVING ROOM and an expansive BONUS/FLEX SPACE, giving you tremendous flexibility for a home office, recreation room, hobbies, additional gathering space or whatever best fits your lifestyle. The GREENHOUSE ROOM provides access to the garden area and adds even more personality to this truly unique home.

Outside is where this property becomes even more special. Enjoy approximately 1.4 ACRES with a GATED DRIVEWAY, FENCED GROUNDS, mature landscaping and established garden areas, all while being conveniently located within PRINCETON CITY LIMITS.

Known locally as the historic Gurley House, this property has a wonderful history but has served as a PRIVATE RESIDENCE for the past several years. For the buyer searching for MORE SPACE, MORE LAND and a HOME WITH TRUE CHARACTER rather than another cookie-cutter floor plan, this Princeton property is amazing!!

NOTE: Included in the total heated square footage is approximately 635 SF with painted concrete flooring that is heated and cooled. Total square footage also includes approximately 164 SF in an upstairs bedroom without a dedicated vent that receives heating and cooling from the hallway and upstairs units.
