About This Home

A rare opportunity to rent for one year, a house perfectly positioned to experience all that Princeton has to offer! This cozy brick residence is on a charming in-town street literally one block from the shopping and restaurants of Nassau Street. Plus, Princeton University campus, including a variety of athletic venues, is about a half-mile away. The property has generous paver driveway parking and a detached garage that helps keep the back patio extra private. A covered porch cooled by a ceiling fan is a lovely spot to entertain and dine al fresco. The kitchen is handsome and well-equipped with granite countertops and tile. A handy powder room also serves the first floor. Original hardwood floors, molding and darling built-ins lend that quintessential old-school Princeton warmth. A sunroom is perfectly sized for working from home or just quietly enjoying a book, while the finished basement has invaluable extra space for a play room or TV lounge. Upstairs, the main suite offers a private full bath, a rarity in a period property like this. The hall bathroom, done in soothing shades of white and cream, serves a sunny bedroom down the hall and the top floor bedroom with window seats beneath a peaked ceiling. Get ready to fall in love with town and gown living!

About the Listing Agent

David Schure

Callaway Henderson Sotheby's Int'l-Princeton

Local Expertise. Global Connections. David Schure brings a strong blend of academic background and professional experience to the field of real estate sales. He studied architecture and decorative arts at Columbia University's graduate program in Historic Preservation and focused on real estate and marketing in the MBA program at the College of William and Mary. David joined the real estate industry because of his passion for architecture. He later left to work for the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and then for the Trenton Downtown Association. He rejoined the firm in 2002 as a full-time Sales Associate. David is the former Chair of the Princeton Township Historic Preservation Commission, which is charged with the responsibility of guiding owners of registered historic properties who are making exterior structural changes. Since the consolidation of the former township and borough, he serves as the Vice-Chair. More recently he has focused on the needs to recognize and preserve contemporary architecture, particularly mid-century modern. David is a former member of the board of directors for Princeton Child Development Institute, an institution that serves individuals with autism; a former Officer of the Old Barracks Association; and past president of the Friends of the New Jersey State Museum. In response to the growing volume of traffic on the major routes through Princeton and its surrounding communities, David founded and chaired an ad hoc committee, which placed the primary Princeton artery, The Kings Highway, on the National Register of Historic Places. David and his family are restoring an 18th century house in Princeton. His son attended Princeton's excellent public schools and is now enrolled as a graduate student following doing his undergraduate work as well at Rensselaer Polytechnical Institute (RPI), in Troy, NY.
