About This Home

As of February 2023

Just completed improvements throughout this sophisticated, all brick French Provincial elevate the interior to stylish new heights, but the sweeping view of Bedens Brook Club’s 3rd hole remains the home’s undeniable crown jewel. Step through the stunning foyer, with a glimmering chandelier overhead and gleaming tile underfoot, and continue to the great room, where an expansive wall of glass frames the stone patio, tree-dotted yard and rolling green golf course beyond. An entertainer’s dream come true, this central space features a brand new bar with waterfall-edge quartz and gray-washed cabinets concealing multiple wine fridges. New wood flooring extends into the openly combined kitchen/family room, where Fisher Paykel dishwasher drawers coordinate with appliances by Sub-Zero and Wolf and a massive U-shaped island faces the stone fireplace wall. In the dining room, a subtle wall mural looks pretty and polished paired with tall French doors that enhance the home’s architectural style. A new, fully-tiled powder room is ready for guests and anyone working from home in the wood-paneled library. Also found in this quieter wing of the main level is the primary suite loaded with special details, like a coffered ceiling, custom closets and new bathroom vanities. Three upper level bedroom suites are just as large and comfortable with brand new, plush carpeting, which also blankets a shared bonus room. Nearly every room in this house is freshly painted, including the expansive basement, where a media room and barrel-vaulted wine cellar await discovery. With a view like this, alfresco dining and grilling are a must! The pergola-topped outdoor kitchen is ready to serve. Only 2.3 miles to the restaurants of Hopewell Borough and just over 6 miles to downtown Princeton…come see!
