About this home
Classic 1920's expanded colonial set on prestigious Springdale Road offers a rare combination of history, character and location. Once the home of Harold W. Dodds, the 15th President of Princeton University (1933-1957), the residence sits directly across from the Springdale Golf Course, with sweeping views of rolling fairways framed by Gothic towers of Princeton in the distance. Inside, timeless details enrich the formal living room with fireplace, the adjacent sunken library with built-ins and the formal dining room with French doors to the backyard. The kitchen was thoughtfully renovated and expanded in 2010 by Spyglass Kitchens , adding a sunny breakfast room with French doors to three bluestone patios-ideal for entertaining or quiet enjoyment. A front addition introduced a cozy den/home office with a powder room and side porch access creating even more versatile living space. Upstairs, four bedrooms and two full baths provide comfortable accommodations, while a walk-up attic offers flexible loft-style space and generous storage. A circular driveway, detached garage, and a large private backyard complete the setting. With classic bones and an updated kitchen, the home is move-in ready. The original bathrooms await a new vision, walls and ceilings are ready for a fresh update and the unfinished basement offers endless potential to tailor the home to your lifestyle. All of this is within walking distance of Princeton University, McCarter Theater, the public library, the dinky train station, acclaimed restaurants and the vibrant heart of downtown Princeton-making this a truly exceptional opportunity to own a piece of Princeton's history.
