About 100 Carson Rd

Solidly Built Home Set Amid Nature Trails and Estate Homes. Immediately next to the extensive trails and natural land of Carson Road Woods and abutting the deep lots of Players Lane, this 4.8-acre property offers all the pleasures and privacy of remote living within three miles of downtown Princeton. Rows of tall trees define the sprawling lot, home to a classic white cape with charming dormer windows and a detached garage. While the house is solidly built with nicely scaled rooms, it requires extensive updating. Hardwood floors, French doors and two fireplaces give buyers with vision a great starting point! A main level primary suite, a sunroom addition and a mudroom sized to meet modern needs are further selling points. Even the upper level bedrooms have hardwood floors and details that speak to the quality of the original craftsmanship, like solid paneled doors. Of course, the size of the lot also allows buyers to start from scratch and build a new, larger home of any style. With top-notch schools, award-winning golf courses, organic farm stands and every store from A-Z within a few minute’s drive, you really can’t go wrong, no matter which path you choose!
