Cleveland Lane
Formerly the Charter Club on the Princeton University campus, this home was moved in the 1920s to Cleveland Lane and more recently underwent an extensive restoration aimed at transforming the chopped-up interior spaces, reflective of its university eating club origins, to a more open floor plan suited to a modern family with three young children.
The addition of the wrap-around back porch was designed as exterior connector for several indoor spaces.
The Tuscan columns, bead board ceiling, and privacy screening, give this spacious porch a finished, stately look.

The carriage house has three car bays and includes a guest suite on the second floor.
