FULLY FURNISHED 1906 QUEEN ANNE VICTORIAN, in the heart of Princeton’s original Historic District. From the beds to the silverware, this extraordinary home can be yours, beautifully furnished and ready to live in from the moment the keys become yours. Imagine closing day. You set down your bags, walk through rooms already filled with warmth and character, and realize there is almost nothing left to do except begin living the life this home was made for. Coffee on the porch. Your first fire beneath the evening sky. Dinner around the table. A quiet night surrounded by 120 years of history. This is not a house you buy and then try to make special. It already is. 312 7th Avenue S is part of the story of Princeton itself, standing at the heart of its original Historic District. Open the front door and another world begins. Original pocket doors glide between gracious rooms. Intricate millwork, preserved built-ins and timeless floors surround you with the artistry of an era when homes were meant to endure for generations. Then the sunlight finds the extraordinary diamond-pattern Cathedral Glass, illuminating deep reds and greens and casting color into rooms that have watched more than a century pass by. It is the kind of craftsmanship that cannot simply be ordered, replaced or recreated. Five bedrooms, three baths and more than 2,751 finished square feet offer remarkable flexibility, crowned by an unforgettable 41 x 28 third-floor Primary Suite, an entire private level that feels almost hidden away from the rest of the world. Beyond the walls, welcoming porches and lovingly cultivated gardens invite slow mornings, long summer evenings and conversations you never want to end. And now, perhaps for the first time, you do not have to wonder how you could ever furnish a home this distinctive. The furnishings can stay. The Cathedral Glass stays. The character stays. The story stays. You simply step into it. Picture Thanksgiving here, the table filled and every room alive with conversation. Imagine Christmas morning beneath ceilings that have witnessed generations of celebrations before yours. Picture friends walking through the door, stopping to take it all in, and asking the question you may hear again and again: “How did you ever find this place?” More than $125,000 has recently been invested in updating, preserving and improving this remarkable home, but its most treasured qualities were created long before any of us arrived: its craftsmanship, its architecture, its history and that almost indescribable feeling of standing inside something that could never truly be duplicated. For 120 years, this Queen Anne has been protected, cherished and entrusted from one Steward to the next. It has welcomed families, witnessed celebrations, carried memories and endured while so much around it changed. Soon, someone will turn this key, walk through these rooms and understand that they are not simply buying a historic home. They are being entrusted with its next chapter. Someone will drink coffee on this porch, watch the morning sun illuminate the Cathedral Glass, gather the people they love around this table and carry this extraordinary home forward into its next century. The only question is whether that someone will be you... or whether someday you will wish it had been. No longer do you simply admire historic luxury. Now, you live it. Now, you own it.
