About 44 Wiggins St

This downtown Princeton home is a masterclass in single-family style, combining thoughtful design with a prime in-town location. Spanning three generous levels, the layout includes light-filled living, dining, and family rooms, plus a hardworking mudroom-laundry combo with a new Miele washer and dryer. The kitchen, anchored by a pull-up island with a cooktop and hood, includes a new refrigerator and dual pantry closets for convenient storage. Upstairs, find four flexible bedrooms across two upper floors with plenty of room to tailor the space to your needs. The primary suite could be reimagined on the second floor with ease, while the top floor currently functions as a private retreat with a renovated bath. Whether used as a home gym, a pair of home offices, or a tucked-away guest space, there's room to stretch out and settle in. Details like pocket doors and decorative glass accents nod to the past, while quality upgrades, including high-end Andersen windows throughout, deliver energy efficiency with ease. The backyard is a peaceful, professionally landscaped haven filled with native plants, a built-in fire pit with seating, and a patio perfect for al fresco dining. There is also a one-bay garage and plenty of parking. The front yard, also thoughtfully designed, offers a layered and welcoming streetscape. Despite the tranquil setting, you're just moments from all the vibrancy of town. This home lives beautifully both inside and out!
