Perfectly positioned in Princeton's sought-after Riverside neighborhood, 312 Prospect Avenue offers the best of town-and-gown living-just a block and a half from the highly regarded Riverside Elementary School, and moments from downtown, the University, and everyday conveniences. With five bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, and a spacious, sun-filled layout, this updated split-level home delivers comfort, flexibility, and location in one compelling package. Set on a .27-acre lot, the home welcomes you with lush curb appeal and a charming front yard. Inside, hardwood floors lead you through an inviting living room filled with natural light from a large picture window, and centered around a classic wood-burning fireplace. Recessed lighting and crown molding add a touch of elegance, while the open flow into the dining room makes for easy entertaining. The beautifully renovated (2024) kitchen blends modern style with everyday function, and opens to an expanded sunroom where vaulted ceilings, skylights, a Palladian window, and sliding glass doors to the deck create a bright, airy space for everything from casual dining to weekend relaxation. Whether you're hosting indoors or out on the deck and patio, this home is built for gathering and enjoying life. The updated bathrooms reflect today's clean, timeless finishes. A tandem two-car garage offers additional parking and storage. What truly sets this home apart is its unbeatable location. In addition to being within easy walking distance of Princeton's vibrant downtown and University, NYC-bound bus service is just around the corner-making commuting a breeze. Whether it's a stroll to your favorite café, school drop-offs, or hopping on the bus to the city, life at 312 Prospect Avenue is as convenient as it is charming. This is the Princeton lifestyle at its best-walkable, welcoming, and ready to be yours.
