729-731 Princeton Kingston Rd, Princeton, NJ 08540

Inspired, forward-thinking design and a complete, to-the-studs renovation created 729-731 Princeton Kingston Road - two homes under one roof that include a four-bedroom, three-full-bath home PLUS a two-bedroom, two-full-bath accessory dwelling unit (ADU). If you're not familiar with the term ADU, you likely will become more so in the near future. While not a new concept, ADUs have enjoyed accelerated adoption as the housing industry's answer to the changing needs of homeowners, providing flexible use space that can not only generate additional monthly income as a rental unit, but also help the purchaser qualify for a higher mortgage amount by factoring in the anticipated rental income. In addition to the immediate financial benefits, many uses for ADUs include multi-generational living for extended household members; a guest house; work-from-home space with a separate entrance and address that helps to provide distinct division between personal and professional space; or a primary residence for those that want to age in place, allowing the main house to be rented for substantially higher monthly income than the ADU to provide income during retirement. The newly transformed home offers bright, modern living with an open floor plan that maximizes the use of natural light with large windows and skylights, most notably in the designer kitchen with full views of the backyard through a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows and a sliding glass door to the deck. White quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances gleam beneath recessed lighting while pendants provide task lighting above the center island. The four bedrooms and two full baths are up a short flight of stairs. The family room and the third full bath are a few steps down and are conveniently accessible from one car attached garage. The finished basement provides additional space for an exercise room, office, or recreation space. The ADU entrance is at the side of the house, marked by its own house numbers. The ADU was created from a portion of the existing home, completely renovated from the studs, plus a brand new addition which was built using Accel Building Company's signature product, ThermaSteel panels, a high-tech, energy-efficient and sustainable alternative to wooden frame building. Similar to the main house, the space is bright and modern with an open plan kitchen and living area with sliding glass doors leading to a petite patio and yard space. There is an abundance of parking at the property with two spots allocated to the ADU. Located on close to half an acre in Princeton's Riverside section, 729-731 Princeton Kingston Road is close to Riverside Elementary School, Princeton University, Princeton Shopping Center and downtown Princeton with a plethora of shopping, dining and cultural venues at your disposal. 2022-06-26
