Welcome to this NE-facing 5-bedroom Colonial in Princeton Junction’s Grovers Mill Estates. From the paver walkway to the new front door and replacement windows, there’s a comfortable, welcoming feel to this home that continues once you step inside. The main level has a great flow, with hardwood floors through the front of the home and plenty of room to spread out. The Living Room is generously sized and works just as well for everyday life as it does for entertaining. The updated Eat-In Kitchen is a real gathering spot, with granite countertops, copious cabinetry, stainless appliances, a pantry and a brand-new exhaust hood. It opens right into the Family Room, where brand-new carpeting, a wood-burning fireplace and backyard views make it an easy place to settle in. The Formal Dining Room will suit you well for dinners and holidays, plus a main-level Bedroom that gives you options depending on what you need, whether that’s a guest room, home office or space for multi-generational living. A Powder Room rounds out the first floor. Upstairs, the Primary Suite has two walk-in closets and a refreshed en-suite Bath. Three additional Bedrooms and an updated Hall Bath are up here as well. New LVP flooring throughout the second floor gives the space a fresh, cohesive look. And then there’s the finished Basement, which gives everyone a little more room to spread out, along with a wine cellar and plenty of storage. Outside is where this home really gives you room to enjoy. The spacious backyard and generous Patio with firepit are ready for summer dinners, relaxing Fall evenings, gardening, playing or just enjoying some time outside. There’s plenty of space without feeling like you have a second job maintaining it. And, of course, there’s the location. You’re in Grovers Mill Estates, within the highly regarded West Windsor-Plainsboro School District (HS North), with NJ Transit, downtown Princeton, parks, golf, shopping and dining all conveniently close by. It’s a home with a lot of flexibility, a great backyard, and the kind of layout that makes everyday life easy.
