Drive beneath a canopy of sycamores down one of Princeton's most beautiful streets to a corner lot in the convenient Institute neighborhood. Here stands a Colonial with big divided light windows, original hardwood floors and plaster walls reaching 9 feet high throughout. The main level rooms are large and have an effortless circular flow. Bookcases and niches bring intimacy to the expansive living room with fireplace. The big eat-in kitchen opens to the backyard, dining room and entry hall with powder room. A stained glass window and glossy paneling lead the way upstairs. Pass three delightful bedrooms and a hall bath on the way to the master suite, where a study with built-in hutch and the bedroom overlook a lengthy side lawn and garden. In its current incarnation, the enchanting house is beyond serviceable, but the potential of unfinished space and expansion inspire endless visions of what could be.
