About This Home
Just minutes from downtown and the university, and only two blocks from Riverside Elementary, this thoughtfully expanded home is entirely move-in ready. The main level welcomes with hardwood flooring, soft neutral tones, and generous natural light that creates a breezy, open ambiance. A woodstove insert by St. John’s Chimney anchors the living room, offering cozy warmth and a natural gathering spot during cooler seasons. French doors open to a spacious first-floor suite with a vaulted ceiling, a shared Jack and Jill bath, a walk-in closet, and sliding glass doors that lead to a raised deck within the fenced backyard. The kitchen and dining area form an L-shaped layout ideal for hosting, with ceiling-height wood cabinetry, soft-close hardware, and a full set of stainless-steel appliances. Upstairs, three bedrooms with hardwood floors share a hall bath. Storage is plentiful thanks to the basement and an attic with pull-down stairs. Depending on needs, the first-floor suite could easily be reimagined as a bright family room with backyard access and a bay window that floods the space with light. For those seeking a vibrant in-town lifestyle, the location is unbeatable! Close to Princeton’s shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions, commuters will certainly appreciate the quick access to Route 1 and 295, and train service to NYC from both Princeton and Princeton Junction.
40 Southern Way is a house located in Mercer County and the 08540 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Princeton Public attendance zone.
