RESIDENCES AT PALMER SQUARE APPEALING TO FIRST-TIME, MOVE-UP AND EMPTY-NESTER BUYERS

PRINCETON, NJ  – With a variety of single-level and multi-story home styles available and an incomparable location in downtown Princeton, The Residences at Palmer Square is attracting wide-spread interest from first-time, move-up and empty-nester buyers.

The multiple living alternatives provided by the new, limited-edition townhomes and flats are appealing to a variety of personal needs and tastes, as is the community’s location near award-winning schools and just steps from numerous dining, shopping, cultural and entertainment pursuits.

“Downtown Princeton is one of those very unique residential settings where priorities ranging from exceptional educational opportunities to refined culture and ‘walkability’ to commutability can all be achieved on the highest levels,” notes Adrienne Albert, President of The Marketing Directors, the community’s exclusive sales and marketing agent.  “Add to that a diverse mix of home designs that create a virtual custom home scenario and it’s no surprise The Residences at Palmer Square is drawing buyers in all stages of life.”

With construction completed on the community’s first phase of homes and immediate occupancy available, the first closings are already underway.   The recently-introduced collection of residences includes 16 two- and three-bedroom flats ranging from 1,623 to 3,195 square feet, and 11 two- and three-bedroom townhomes ranging from 2,622 to 3,084 square feet.

Located on Paul Robeson Place between Chambers and Witherspoon Streets, The Residences at Palmer Square completes the vision begun by developer Edgar Palmer in 1937 to create a vibrant, European-style town square for Princeton that would include shops, restaurants and residences as a complement to Princeton University.  With Palmer Square’s more than 40 brand-name stores, boutiques, restaurants and specialty food shops already a staple of downtown Princeton, Minno & Wasko Architects and Planners of Lambertville, NJ has created a number of distinctive residential elevations for the community that expertly complement the brick, Federal-style exteriors and Colonial-era structures of the immediate Palmer Square environment.

Modern touches include steel and concrete construction that offer the highest level of quality and privacy, while terraces and balconies in many homes and lushly-landscaped promenades, courtyards and common areas offer desirable outdoor space.  Homeowners also enjoy indoor parking.

Design distinction and sophistication are carried throughout the homes as well, where custom interior features and appointments include nine-foot ceilings in condominiums; private elevators and 10-foot first-floor ceiling heights in townhomes; and tray ceilings in living and dining areas and master bedrooms.  Extensive millwork, including striking fireplaces with marble hearths, pocket doors and elegant crown moldings, add style and elegance to the homes.  Gourmet kitchens are notable for maple cabinets, granite countertops and Viking stainless steel appliance packages, while spa-like master baths feature whirlpool tubs, double sinks, glass showers, and marble countertops. 

Ideally situated across Nassau Street from Princeton University, Palmer Square also allows residents to enjoy Princeton’s cherished suburban ambiance, award-winning public and private schools, renowned university attributes, and world-class entertainment and cultural offerings, including first-rate productions at McCarter Theatre and the Princeton University Art Museum.   NJ TRANSIT access to New York and Philadelphia (and beyond) is only a short walk from The Residences at Palmer Square, and businesses and shopping venues of the nearby Route 1 corridor are also within easy reach.
