for $319,000. This 9,200 square foot building was built in 1896 on a lot size of 0.114899.
Right in the heart of Princeton's lively Art District, this two-story commercial building is brimming with character and potential. The Prairie and Sullivanesque influences are a perfect juxtaposition to the near floor to ceiling front windows, allowing for a bit of today and yesterday to be intertwined. With nearly 9,400 square feet of space, it's the perfect canvas for a visionary looking to bring new energy to this thriving community. The property is designed for multiple uses under one roof-think boutiques, galleries, co-working spaces, studios, cafes, and more. On the second floor, there are two short-term or long term rental units, one already operating successfully as an Airbnb, providing instant income while other parts of the building take shape. Many of the major projects have already been completed. A new roof was installed in 2020, and in 2022 a whole-building rooftop HVAC unit was added to ensure modern comfort. Electrical systems have been improved on both the first floor and in the upstairs apartment foyer. The second floor has been outfitted with new windows, except for the finished apartment, which already had updated windows in place. The back of the building now features new glass doors, and the storefront windows and doors have had broken glass replaced. Inside, partitions have been added on both floors, setting the stage for future offices, apartments, or creative flex spaces. Even the basement has been gutted of its old walls, offering a clean slate for new possibilities. While some projects remain, the most significant updates have already been tackled, leaving behind a strong foundation ready for the next chapter. Whether you envision art studios paired with gallery space, a cafe that spills into a creative workshop, or a destination that blends multiple uses, this historic property is ready to become a cornerstone of Princeton's thriving Art District.
