Property Description

Set back from the road and enveloped by mature trees, 706 Kingston Road in Princeton is a historic gem that beautifully marries timeless architectural details with modern comforts. As you approach, the grandeur of the 12-foot front door captures your attention, leading into a quaint entryway adorned with a handpainted wall—just the first of many along with other thoughtful details found throughout this lovingly cared-for home. The great room is a testament to the home's rich history, featuring original decorative ceiling molding, crown molding, and a wall lined with built-in bookcases. A spectacular 12-foot window overlooking the front porch floods the room with natural light. The kitchen is a chef's dream, with a SubZero refrigerator, Electrolux 6-burner gas range, granite counters, and a butcher block center island. Adjacent to the kitchen, a versatile butler's pantry, currently used as a work-from-home space, seamlessly connects to the dining room. Here, more built-in bookcases frame the room, creating an elegant setting for a grand table capable of seating a crowd. Adjoining the dining room, a sunny family room with window seats overlooking the backyard provides a cozy retreat. Built-in cabinets offer ample storage, and French doors open onto a charming side porch, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The second level hosts the spacious primary suite, featuring triple crown molding, a walk-in bay window, three closets, and an updated en suite bath with a freestanding tub and multi-head shower. This level also includes a second bedroom, a full bath, and a convenient laundry room. The third level offers two additional bedrooms that share a full bath. The backyard is a private oasis, surrounded by mature trees that provide seclusion. Enjoy the in-ground pool with a slide and a stunning tiered stone patio—perfect for al fresco dining, weekend barbecues, or elegant cocktail parties. Located just down Nassau Street from Princeton University and downtown Princeton, 706 Kingston Road places you within easy reach of the area's renowned shopping, dining, and cultural attractions. The property is also within the highly regarded Princeton Public Schools District, making it a prime location for those seeking excellent public education.
