Mercer | 348 Cherry Valley Road, Princeton, N.J.

A four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath, 3,351-square-foot stone house built in 1928 and fully renovated in 2024, with a living room that has a vaulted ceiling and a two-story stone fireplace, an eat-in kitchen with a butler’s pantry and an adjacent sunroom, a partly finished basement, a slate patio, an attached two-car garage and a one-bedroom, one-bath guest cottage on 5.62 wooded acres. Joshua Wilton, Queenston Realty, 609-577-6786, queenstonrealty.com

Costs

Taxes: $22,760 a year

Pros

The renovations tastefully blend original architectural features with modern conveniences and additions, like the marble-lined primary bathroom, upper- and lower-level laundry appliances and the light-filled sunroom. The guest cottage can be rented.

Cons

Scaling the narrow staircase to the lower level of the main house and the circular staircase in the guest cottage may deter some buyers.
