Property Description

The historic Witherspoon-Jackson area is a popular place to lay down roots in Princeton and with good reason! Community Park is steps away and friendly sidewalks lead to all the benefits of Palmer Square and Princeton University. Plus, dining options abound within the immediate neighborhood. The current house is in need of TLC and would require a gut renovation should you choose to work with what's there. A covered front porch reveals a configuration with one and half baths and 2 bedrooms on either side of the house, plus a divided basement. Beyond the rear sunroom, you'll find a nicely sized backyard. Whether you build your in-town dream home from scratch, reimagine this house to meet your own needs or rehabilitate it as a rental property, investing in this beloved neighborhood is always a smart move. Check with the Princeton Zoning Department for specific approvals and restrictions.
