8 Willow St

Carefully curated modern details make this heart-of-Princeton townhouse an
unexpected find that wows right from the start. The wide foyer was custom designed for
art display, but even bare, it makes a striking statement, whether you've entered
through the freshly finished garage or as a guest through the new front door. Doors are
actually a prominent feature throughout every level, their linear metal detailing
establishing the clean, contemporary tone that guided extensive renovations. The
Bosch-equipped kitchen is super-sleek with an induction cooktop, large stainless steel
sink and a gliding door that reveals a roomy pantry. A glass partition was an ingenious
addition in the tiered entertaining areas, allowing open views and conversation to pass
freely from room to room. While a corner fireplace is a draw upstairs, the family room on
the lower level has a wall of sliders opening to a perfectly manicured Zen garden, a true
haven in the center of town. A skylight leads the way to the private bedroom level,
where custom closets and brand new laundry facilities foster tidy tranquility and
replaced windows welcome in abundant light. A hall bath is just outside two bedrooms.
The cleverly designed primary bath is fitted with a spa tub and vessel sinks. While
finishes throughout, such as dark wood floors and handrails, lean into the modern
aesthetic, every element flies above trends for a look that feels forever current.
