Description

Beautiful architect-designed family home abuts a large public park. Newly renovated, fully furnished. Preserved 1960s "Mad Men" ambiance. Fully-equipped kitchen with an informal eating area plus a separate dining room with china and glassware for your dinners. Large office pictured here can be used as a second bedroom instead, if desired. Smaller room has washer/dryer and laundry tub, could also be a small office or a utility room, or a small guest room. Fold-out couch also accommodates guests. Ample closets. Baby grand piano - do you play? One space for your car in garage, and also off-street parking for your guests or a second car. Outside you will find a gas grill and dining furniture, patio, a big yard and garden. Fully furnished; linens and all dishes and kitchen-ware also provided. Best for a couple but good also for a couple with one child. Glorious location on Battlefield Park and Institute Woods with its hiking trails. One mile to Princeton University -- you can bicycle to campus, or walk to the Graduate College and catch the university bus there. If you are affiliated with the Institute for Advanced Study or the Princeton Theological Seminary, you can walk from the house. Public transport: the house is located two miles from the "dinky" train connection to Northeast Corridor Amtrak and New Jersey Transit (trains to New York/Philadelphia.) Wi-fi, basic cable, gas, electric, and water included; tenant pays any gas and electric costs that exceed $500/month. Electric costs are minimal due to solar panels on the property. There is an adjoining small apartment in which the owner lives, so it's easy to contact the landlady. You'll love living here!
