The traditional Colonial exterior, paired with the lush landscaping, creates a timeless curb appeal. Step inside to discover rich hardwood floors that flow seamlessly throughout, from the gracious foyer with crown and chair rail molding to the front-to-back living room with wood-burning fireplace and clerestory windows to welcome in the natural light. The dining room mimics these windows, providing a sunny setting for weekend brunches. Step outside the dining room or living room to the patio.

Practical touches include a large mud/laundry room and a first floor office with built-in bookcases. Upstairs, the large primary suite offers a sitting area and a spacious en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms share an updated hall bath, while the third floor provides an additional bedroom and full bath. The home's fully finished walkout basement is a true bonus, offering a separate living space complete with a recreation room with wet bar, a game room with built-in bookcases, a bedroom, and a luxurious full bath featuring a rain shower and heated floors. The walkout access leads directly to the beautifully manicured backyard, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Outside, the professionally landscaped and hardscaped yard spans nearly half an acre (.46), providing a serene oasis with terraces, tiered decks, and inviting sitting areas. Garden enthusiasts will love the built-in planter boxes and vibrant gardens that punctuate the outdoor space. The attached two-car garage is outfitted with an EV charger. With its ideal location, sophisticated updates, and an expansive, private yard, 81 Westcott Road offers a perfect blend of traditional beauty and modern living in one of Princeton’s most coveted neighborhoods.
