Princeton Home For Sale: 40 Hawthorne Avenue, Princeton, New Jersey 08540

Arrive at this beautifully updated 1920s Colonial to find history and modern flair mingle with ease. In what was once Princeton Borough, it is just a few short blocks away from the middle and high schools. The moment you step inside, you’re greeted by an up-to-the-minute kitchen and polished floors. But this home hasn’t forgotten its classic roots either, with arched doorways, stained glass accents, and built-ins that keep the charm alive. The main level boasts a primary suite complete with its own en suite bath and a private door leading outside for those who value a quick morning breath of fresh air. Upstairs, are three more bedrooms, each with its own personality. One has a straight staircase to the attic. The lower level offers up yet another bathroom, making this home as practical as it is pretty. Bibliophiles will be over the moon with a wall of shelves in the fireside living room. The adjoining sunroom and spacious dining room make entertaining a breeze, and when summer is the season, a patio surrounded by lush blooms and mature plantings is your go-to spot for al fresco dining. This home is on a low-traffic street conveniently located to so much, you’ll rarely need the car. Schools, the Princeton Shopping Center, the library, and the university are all within easy reach.
