Modern luxury meets urban convenience at The Paramount, a boutique collection of six apartments in the historic heart of Princeton immediately surrounded by park-like green space. Every unit, either brand new or fully renovated from top-to-bottom, comes with a sleek open kitchen, in-unit laundry, assigned parking and secure storage. From alarm systems to bike racks, every detail is complete. Joshua Zinder Architecture + Design, the team behind Princeton’s award-winning Nelson Glass House, used the most efficient systems and all the latest materials to meet LEED standards and surpass expectations for high-end style. Set well back from the street, Units B and C offer two upper level bedrooms with dedicated full baths, plus a powder room. The living room opens to a breezy balcony, while the kitchen lets you step out to the patio for grilling or al fresco meals. There’s even a third outdoor area dedicated to the main suite. Airy 9-foot ceilings and handsome engineered wood floors run throughout. Sleek ceiling fans and individual A/C zones let you customize the climate from room to room. Follow the footpath to the YMCA sport facilities or head to Community Park, just down the block. Palmer Square and Princeton University are just steps beyond the neighborhood!
