A must-see inside and out. Tucked away on a secluded private lane off Quakerbridge Road, this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath single-family home is set in the historic hamlet of Port Mercer, directly adjacent to the Delaware & Raritan State Park, offering exceptional access to nature and recreation. Rich in 19th-century character and thoughtfully updated for modern living, the bright and neutral interior features a chef’s kitchen equipped with a 6-burner Viking gas cooktop, Sub-Zero refrigerator, granite countertops, and slate tile flooring. The kitchen opens to a sun-filled family room with wide-plank pumpkin pine floors. Original yellow pine floors grace the living and dining rooms, while a hidden wet bar enhances entertaining. Sliding French doors from the kitchen and family room lead to a flagstone patio and a private, fenced backyard. Upstairs, four charming bedrooms feature original tulip poplar floors. The primary suite offers a cathedral ceiling, custom built-ins, and a renovated en-suite bath with a rain shower and quartzite countertop. Two additional full baths and a convenient second-floor laundry closet with a full-size stacking washer and dryer complete the level. Old-world details abound throughout the home, including period hardware, vintage doorknobs, push-button light switches, and secondary winder staircases, all contributing to the home’s authentic character. Ample storage is found throughout with built-ins, well-designed closets, a basement, and a walk-up attic. Additional highlights include a whole-house generator, water softener, EV charger, custom window treatments, fresh landscaping and lawn, shed, paver walkways, and four-zone heating and air conditioning for year-round comfort. Recognized in local historic preservation documentation as the Uhl-Keith House and a member of West Windsor’s “100 Club,” this property is a contributing element of the historic Port Mercer community. Conveniently located minutes to shopping, Nassau Park, and just 3.5 miles to downtown Princeton, with top-rated West Windsor–Plainsboro schools nearby. A rare opportunity to enjoy historic character, modern comfort, and a canal-side lifestyle just minutes from Princeton.
