This Princeton home is not just grand — it’s fit for a president.

It was once owned by Grover Cleveland — the only U.S. President to serve two non-consecutive terms. He bought it to retire to after his second term as President ended in 1897 and lived there until his death in 1908.

The six bedroom, five full and two half bathroom home is on the market now for $5.95 million.

“Architecturally it is magnificent,” said Maura Mills Callaway of Henderson Sotheby’s International Realty, the listing agent.

The home is known as Westland. It was built in 1856 for Robert F. Stockton, a U.S. Senator and naval commodore who captured California during the Mexican-American War. Cleveland named it Westland after his friend Andrew Fleming West, a humanities professor at Princeton University who helped him find the home.
