Stunning, historic NJ home of former U.S. president up for sale

NJ house is a National Historic Landmark

Home of former U.S. President

6-bedroom property listed for $6M

PRINCETON — A piece of history updated for modern luxury has been listed in Princeton — the mansion of former President Grover Cleveland.

The Sotheby’s Realty listing details the “award-winning restoration of 'Westland',” as dubbed by the Caldwell native-turned U.S. President.

Cleveland moved from NJ to New York as a child — where he rose to political fame and even served as NY Governor.

He was the country’s 22nd and 24th President — living at the White House from 1885-1889 and 1893-1897.

Once done with his second term, Cleveland and his young family moved to this six-bedroom home in Princeton, built in 1856.

It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965.

Westland — which is within walking distance to the Princeton University campus and Palmer Square — last sold for $4.3 million in 2015, according to a previous listing with Long and Foster.

Photos show the kitchen was then refreshed, along with most of the home’s decor.

The 1.57-acre property includes a renovated pool, covered porch and 3-car garage.

Inside, there are multiple fireplaces, seven bathrooms (five of them full) and a high-end kitchen redone in white cabinetry and natural marble.
