    What's special

    Designed by Charles Steadman, this beautifully renovated Greek Revival overlooks the heart of historic Mercer Hill with a classical silhouette tempered by warm 1830's charm that touches every room: original hardwoods, multiple fireplaces, and fine millwork that includes the chiseled molding and cascading staircase in the front hall. Significant recent changes and a keen eye for decor bring this home into 2019 with soaring ceilinged rooms soaked in natural light from dramatic, oversized windows. A pair of marble fireplaces anchors adjoining living and family rooms, perfect for large-scale entertaining. A bookcase-wrapped study tucks quietly away. The dining room can handle a banquet-sized table, and flows to one of the two side porches. In the kitchen, a brick fireplace brings warmth to modern amenities: stainless appliances, concrete counters, and connecting mudroom with ample storage. A sun-dappled deck, backyard, and bluestone patio feel far removed from town and gown, yet Nassau Street sits within a block with the train and McCarter Theater nearby as well. The sunny upper floors house 5 spacious bedrooms, including a lavish master suite, and picture perfect modern baths. (Don't miss one of Princeton's best views from the master bath!) Tons of walk-in storage, central AC, front & rear stair cases, a 2-car garage and additional parking for 2 more cars off Steadman Alley all combine to tie the bow...Come see!
