Nestled on a picturesque 60+ acre vineyard in the northern section of Princeton, this charming cape-cod style cottage is a true gem among seven other properties that grace the grounds. Escape from the bustle of life with lush lawns, rolling hills and farmland offering breathtaking views that create an idyllic backdrop for those seeking a peaceful retreat. Just off the Great Road, (directly across from the Princeton Day School campus), your approach to Coventry Farm is a private, tree-lined lane that forms a unique neighborhood. The front lawns on this side of the lane are immaculate since there aren't any driveways, access is by a large circular drive leading to the rear of the property where a two-car garage and a covered back porch greets you. A new roof over the main house was just installed and the recently painted interior of blue-gray walls complemented by white ceilings, trim and doors complete with classic hardwood floors, creates a sense of calm. The first level offers an updated kitchen with a new Anderson window, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters and a breakfast counter for morning coffee. The sunny breakfast room has newly installed Anderson sliding glass doors offering views and easy access to the deck and backyard. The adjacent living room boasts a brand new gas burning fireplace insert for cozy winter evenings and a first floor den makes for a quiet space that could serve as an office with double entries. A full updated bathroom and a covered porch to the two car garage completes this level. Upstairs two spacious bedrooms share a second updated full bathroom with a new Anderson window and each bedroom is unique with skylights, alcoves and plenty of closet space with new closet dividers. The lower level family room has been recently painted, along with new light fixtures and new carpeting, the large unfinished section was also recently painted and offers possible expansion of additional living space should one decide, a laundry area and a set of bilco doors accesses the backyard. A rear deck is perfect for outdoor entertaining and a few steps down leads to a flat half acre lot with plenty of room for lawn games and gardening. A walk down Coventry Farm Lane connects you to the trails at Mountain Lakes Preserve and a sidewalk along The Great Road leads you to the town of Princeton in less than two miles. This is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire a delightful home in an enchanting setting for under a million dollars in Princeton. Home can not be knocked down for land and has some expansion possibilities.
