About This Home

As of October 2019

Finely-rendered luxury, warm livability, and an incomparable backyard add up to one of the most beautiful properties in Ettl Farm. Elegant living and dining rooms introduce this home's chiseled molding and hardwoods, and lead to a conservatory and Great Room warmly accented with gas fireplaces and prodigious sunlight. With modern French Country-inspired style, the grand gourmet kitchen is as beautiful as it is high-functioning, with stainless appliances, granite counters, and a walk-in pantry. A beverage bar, outfitted mudroom, and study wrapped in arched bookcases balance elegance with practicality. Upstairs, the owners' suite pampers with a sitting room, a closet-lined dressing hall, and a bath in tumbled stone. 4 more bedrooms have inside access to 3 baths. The backyard is one of the most private in the neighborhood; bluestone patios include a sheltered outdoor "family room", a dining area, and a kitchenette. A finished basement boasts rec space and an office with a full bath. Johnson Park School and downtown Princeton are just down the road!
