A cute-as-a-button home within strolling distance of Rocky Hill eateries and parks is on the market! With an open floorplan and plenty of natural light, this home enjoys wood floors throughout and crown molding on the first floor. The kitchen boasts a L shaped workspace that will delight cooks is open to a sunny breakfast nook. The living room and dining room are conveniently adjacent to the kitchen and there is a backdoor to the deep yard. The bathroom is fully remodeled and is detailed with porcelain flooring and white subway tile in the bath/tub combo, where a cubby for soaps and shampoos is built into the wall. On the second level, the master bedroom has two closets, including one lined with cedar. A neighboring bedroom has a nice closet, and both rooms have hardwood floors. Pull-down stairs lead to the attic, which provides ample storage.

Extra living/working space is available in the partially finished basement, along with storage in two additional rooms, one of which houses the laundry.

The back yard, deep and fenced, is rimmed with curved garden beds that provide three seasons’ of color and texture, from lilacs, rhododendrons and lily of the valley in the spring to rose of Sharon and day lilies in summer to the fireworks of deciduous trees in fall. It’s a regular destination for hummingbirds, blue jays, gold finches and cardinals. A shed at the back stores all your gardening tools.

At its front, a stand of pink and white heirloom peonies, gifted to prior owners when a local peony farm went out of business in the 1950s, topple over the white picket fence each spring to dazzle passersby and bumblebees alike.

Located just four miles from Princeton, and a short drive from 206 and other popular commuter routes, this home is the perfect size for those starting out or downsizing. For outdoor enthusiasts, it’s only a half-mile to Van Horn Park and the D&R Canal, and for culture, the popular art house, Montgomery Cinema, is moments away by car.
