This charming 4 bedroom/3.5 bath home is located on a secluded private lane off Quakerbridge Road in the historic hamlet of Port Mercer, adjacent to the D & R Canal State Park. The home, which maintains the charm of its 19th century origins, offers the comforts of 21st century living including a high efficiency, 4-zone HVAC system, chef’s kitchen complete with a 6-burner Viking cooktop, Sub-Zero refrigerator, granite countertops and slate-tile floor. The warmth and charm of the first floor is highlighted by the original yellow pine floors in the living room and dining room and wide-plank pumpkin pine floors in the sun-filled family room. Fireplaces in the living room, dining room and family room add to the historic ambiance. The spacious dining room also has a hidden wet bar, ideal for entertaining. Two staircases lead up to the second floor and the four bedrooms, each one uniquely charming, including original wide-plank tulip poplar floors. The main bedroom features a cathedral ceiling, elegant built-in cabinets and an en suite bathroom renovated to include a rain shower, custom cabinetry and quartzite countertop. The second floor also includes two additional full baths, a laundry closet that houses a full-size washer and dryer, and a separate linen closet. Sliding French Doors in the kitchen and family room open onto the flagstone patio in the fully fenced backyard. Complementing the secluded, tranquil setting is the adjacent D & R Canal State Park, a picturesque spot for jogging, cycling, paddling, bird-watching, or leisurely strolls on the towpath through the Institute Woods and to the edge of the Princeton University Campus. A mere 3.5 miles from downtown Princeton, and minutes from popular shopping centers, such as Nassau Park Mall, this home is a hidden treasure for nature lovers who desire top-tier WW-P schools and close-proximity to the culture of Princeton.
