391 Nassau Street UNIT 2
Princeton, NJ 08540

Whether youâre starting out in your first place, a snowbird who wants to maintain a Princeton homebase, or empty-nesters searching for a stroll-everywhere spot, this townhouse-like offering on Nassau Street is a perfectly manageable size, just big enough to invite a friend for a weekend stay. Elegant McCosh Mansion, now divided into two residences, was built in 1888 for the revered university president. The smaller East unit is brimming with smart updates and all the inimitable character that makes an old home special. It all begins with a privately enclosed patio with new stamped concrete that echoes the extra guest parking pad below. A Dutch door reveals completely open living and dining areas crowned with a coffered ceiling. A long quartz-topped island offers extra seating and serving space. Fresh paint gives every inch a clean, bright feel that extends down to the renovated lower level housing an office, storage room and a new powder room, which is super practical when entering from the 2-car garage. Upstairs, a new full bath featuring a dual-head shower and stylish brushed brass hardware is yet another big-ticket upgrade. Choosing between bedrooms is no easy decision. One has a romantic Juliet balcony, a walk-in closet and a claw-foot slipper tub. The other has a working fireplace topped with a beautifully detailed mantel. The laundry is handy to both. This is truly the perfect blend of elegance and in-town ease! (Chimney and fireplace are working but being sold as is. Please also note that the square footage registered at the township is lower than the floor plans and deed reflect.)
