The Princeton, New Jersey, home of President Woodrow Wilson when he was a university professor was listed for $6.5 million.
Mansion Global reports the Tudor Revival home was constructed 1896 when Wilson was teaching at Princeton University. The home is roughly a half mile from the Princeton campus – Wilson lived at the home until he became the university’s president in 1902.
The residence has seven bedrooms, five full bathrooms and one half-bath, and its finished basement has features that were not part of Wilson’s home life – gym equipment, a game room and a TV room.
The home, which last changed hands in 2003 for $2.2 million, is one of the few residences belonging to a president that are still privately owned – that includes a former home owned by Grover Cleveland which is located a few blocks from the Wilson residence.
