Bordering Princeton, this home sits less than a block from a direct bus into New York City, with downtown Princeton just five to ten minutes away; reachable in two short stops on the local bus. Main Street is right around the corner, lined with cafes, pizzerias, restaurants, and the post office. The Delaware & Raritan Canal State Park Trail is walkable. Penn Medicine Hospital, the Amish Market, and Harrison Shopping Center are all close by. Welcome to 9 Laurel Ave; a rare gem of a property! The kitchen is the heart of it. A substantial center island, a custom hand-painted mural, hardwood floors throughout that carry warmth through every room. The bathrooms have been fully renovated. Newer Andersen and Pella windows frame every view. Newer central air. These aren’t builder-grade shortcuts; they’re real investments made by someone who took pride in where they lived. The all-season sunroom stops people. Vaulted wood ceiling, skylights, sliding glass doors opening onto the deck; it connects the interior to one of the best backyards in the area. Designed by Baumley Gardens, the maturity of the plantings speaks for itself. Layered, lush, and colorful across every season. The wraparound deck sits in the middle of it all perfectly. Fully fenced, private, and large enough to add a pool.The spacious bedrooms offer real comfort, including an extra large custom-designed walk-in closet. The finished basement is clean and versatile. Every corner of this home has been thought about!
