About This Home
As of March 2018Enter the walled grounds of this Normandy-inspired manor in Princeton's famed Western Section and feel transported to the French countryside. Each room within is exquisitely finished and detailed. Rich wood paneling lends an air of intimacy to the library, while a quatrefoil patterned plaster ceiling and carved stone fireplace add dimension to the grand living room. Arched doorways and leaded casement windows throughout the first floor look out over the grounds, which include a 25'x50' luxurious pool, a separate in-ground 12'x12' spa, tennis court and secluded perennial garden. The custom-designed Old World kitchen with exquisite carved cabinet details and state of the art appliances for elegant entertaining is a gastronome's dream with every imaginable feature, including espresso station. Whether hosting dinners in the glamorous dining room, gathering with friends in the billiard room or just curling up amidst the old-world ambiance of the cozy den, every evening at home is special.
