1 Shadowstone Ln Lawrence Township, NJ 08648

A tribute to the elegance of days gone by,coupled with every modern upgrade and amenity, this classic brick Georgian colonial will simply take your breath away. Set perfectly on nearly two acres, in the charming Village of Lawrenceville,this is one special house. Bluestone path and vintage brick steps lead to the double formal entry. Original tile vestibule opens to the marble-floored foyer, with views straight through to the gardens beyond. Living room floor has glowing oak floor, the quality of which is rarely found today. This is a wonderful room for formal entertaining, with marble surround fireplace hearth, and carved wood mantel. French doors open to a sunroom, with transoms, and walls of paned windows overlooking the gardens,slate terrace,and pergola. There is even a secluded pond, adding to the lyrical feel of the extraordinarily beautiful grounds. Adjacent to the living room, the family room features pegged oak floor, magnificent parquetry, and gas fireplace, with a carved limestone mantel. The formal dining room is spacious enough for large sit-down dinners, and the chair rail, sconces, and chandelier with medallion, add to its appeal. A "bar room" addition, retaining the integrity of house, and featuring a granite- topped bar, is complete with brass foot rail, bar sink, wine cooler and checkered tile floor. Walls of windows, a ceiling fan, and built -in china cupboard encourage congeniality. Certainly, any chef would appreciate the double Dacor eight burner stove and two ovens,and will love having numerous storage racks (cleverly concealed behind custom wood doors) for trays and platters. The counters, granite, of course, tons of storage cabinets and, above them, seemingly endless cupboards wait for your china, and other items. A work station, also topped with granite, provides a place for terrific buffets, and there is a walk-in pantry. A pleasant surprise is the full bath, fitted out with granite shelves and counters. Why the full bath? Well, there is easy access to the heated in-ground pool. With a quick shower, and change of clothes, you are ready for a cook-out on the lovely brick terrace, complete with sitting walls. You will find the master bedroom on the second floor,ensuite,of course, with jetted tub, large stall shower, double sinks and sitting room. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths are on this level, as well. On the third floor is a spacious "bonus" room,full bath, and two other bedrooms, one with a sitting room.
