About This Home

As of August 2024

This architecturally distinct home stands on a perfectly sized lot right in the sweet spot
of Princeton, literally a stone’s throw from the renowned high school, a half-mile from
Palmer Square and under a mile from the bustling shopping center. Craftsman details, a
sheltered front porch and a slate-look roof set a welcoming tone, while arched windows
hint at unexpected elements to come. The current architect-owner, Anthony LaPlaca, took a modest
split-level, expertly built by his father, and dramatically expanded and renovated it
top-to-bottom. This was truly a labor of love and it shows in every one-of-a-kind detail,
first the breakfast area’s wraparound banquette to the powder room’s live-edge vanity. A
choice of gathering spaces include the open living/dining room and the large family
room, both with gas fireplaces. A built-in study nook is great for supervising homework,
while a separate media/rec room keeps games and toys out of the way. The kitchen is
sure to inspire culinary adventures with double ovens, double sinks and custom cherry
cabinetry that stands the test of time. The private levels begin with two bedrooms
sharing a newly updated hall bath, a suite with its own tiled bath and a laundry/craft
room. As you continue up, the spaces grow larger and airier with increased flexibility
and architectural features. Use the barrel vaulted front room as a fifth bedroom or as an
extension of the incredible primary suite with custom frosted glass doors sliding open to
dressing rooms and the bathroom with an oversized dual head shower and separate
tub. Follow the skylights to a lofty office that’s easily big enough for two. At quitting time,
savor the peace and privacy of the fenced backyard from a TimberTech deck. This really
is the whole package in a prime Princeton location!
