Property details

About 82 Linden Ln

A keen eye can tell by the classically handsome exterior that this in-town Colonial was built by prolific Princeton architect, Charles Steadman, and like many historic homes in the heart of town, it was moved to its current location, just two blocks from Nassau Street, two blocks from Princeton Schools and three blocks from Princeton University. The prized lot includes a shared garage and a wide stone patio. While hardwood floors are freshly refinished and clean white paint coats the walls, the interior is ready for your personal updates. A complete modern redesign is certainly viable, yet the many desirable original details on display may inspire you to revive the antique charm. The living room boasts lovely French doors and a striking fireplace. Off the generous central dining room, two smaller spaces let you get creative. One, adjacent to the half bath, could be anything from a future laundry room to a bright pantry and the other is ideal as a home office, already plumbed for a coffee bar. The eat-in kitchen is unexpectedly roomy and cheerfully sunny with a wide window and sliders. In addition to three corner bedrooms, a large dormer transformed the attic into a light-filled, double-room loft with plenty of storage space left tucked beneath the eaves. Bring your contractor, gather your ideas and get excited for in-town living done just the way you want it! Come see! Some photos are virtually staged.
