Create your own happy place in a truly beautiful setting! This cute ranch is ready to adapt to your vision, all at once or over time. A large picture window in the living room perfectly frames preserved land and unforgettable sunset views, while morning light fills the kitchen and dining room with a warm, cheerful glow. The layout includes a fireplace, a cozy den and two corner bedrooms, offering plenty of options for reimagining the space. A practical mudroom opens to generous driveway parking. Spanning nearly an acre, the property is dotted with blooming magnolia and redbud trees, with privacy surrounding the backyard. With a Princeton address and close proximity to Terhune Orchards and the Lawrence-Hopewell Trail, the location is as appealing as the natural views. Important updates include a new roof and a stacked washer/dryer replaced in 2023, as well as a 2019 A/C upgrade. While the home is being sold as-is and a new septic system is needed, this is a rare chance to renovate while living in place and enjoying all that the surrounding area has to offer
