Walkable to Princeton Junction Train Station (approximately 0.6 miles, about a 14-minute walk), this spacious 2,240 sq ft multi-level townhouse rental offers a flexible four-bedroom, three-full-bath layout with well-separated living areas that work equally well for commuting households, professionals, or work-from-home needs. The main level features a hardwood-floored living room, an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, dining area with access to a private balcony, and a bedroom with a full bathroom, providing versatility for guests or office use. The second level includes a primary bedroom and an additional bedroom, along with a full hall bath, while the walk-out lower level offers a large family room with a wood-burning fireplace, a fourth bedroom, a full bathroom, and direct access to a private patio, creating an ideal setup for extended living space, media room, or secondary work area. Additional highlights include in-unit laundry, central air and heat, a one-car attached garage with driveway + additional parking, and access to community amenities including tennis courts and common green spaces, all set within a quiet residential neighborhood with limited through-traffic. Located in Princeton Junction within West Windsor Township, the area is known for its exceptional commuter convenience via the Northeast Corridor with direct service to New York City and Philadelphia, along with the Princeton "Dinky" shuttle connecting to downtown Princeton and Princeton University. Residents enjoy easy access to the Route 1 corridor, including Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, MarketFair Mall, and a wide range of dining, retail, and professional services, as well as the boutiques, cafes, and cultural offerings of Palmer Square. Outdoor recreation is abundant with Duck Pond Park, Mercer County Park, canal paths, and nearby trails and preserves, while healthcare access is anchored by Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center, and the property is served by the highly regarded West Windsor Plainsboro Regional School District, making this an especially appealing option for tenants seeking space, flexibility, and long-term livability in one of Central New Jersey's most desirable commuter locations.
