About This Home

As of July 2014

This gorgeous Princeton contemporary home with magnificent views must be seen to be appreciated! Secluded & tranquil, it is beautifully sited down a shared, two-home private driveway. Here you'll find an almost resort-like property with incredible natural views & unique design elements. Enter into the walled slate courtyard & step inside a striking two-story foyer, enhanced by a custom glass & metal framed staircase. Off to the right is the grand living/great room, where an oversized fireplace fronts the imposing floor-to-ceiling stone wall right out of a mountain retreat along with a wall of windows & French doors leading to the perfect-for-entertaining raised deck overlooking Stony Brook. The first-class kitchen's vaulted, natural wood peaked ceiling is a "wow" & this space would delight even the fussiest chef. Featuring a large island with prep sink, elegant European style cabinetry, Wolf, Viking, Bosch appliances, multiple surfaces for grand-scale entertaining, designer lighting, walk-in pantry with food service shelving, desk area for planning casual to elaborate dinners & a charming eat-in area surrounded by windows. Just around the corner is a lovely dining room with airy views, where the architecturally impressive ceiling kitchen is mirrored. Or if weather permits, you might dine al fresco out on the walled side slate patio. This main level hosts the stunning master suite, with custom-surround fireplace, a relaxing window seat, built-in bookcases, a bath offering a roomy shower plus whirlpool bath, custom built-in drawers & a perfect walk-in closet. On this ground floor you'll also find a huge laundry room & a very chic powder room. At the top of the two-story staircase there's a cozy little spot for quiet reading, then through French doors step up into a delightful room perfect for a home office, library, homework area, craft studio or playroom. The second floor provides three very generous-sized bedrooms, all with California Closet systems. One of the bedrooms is en-suite & there is a perfectly sized hall bath as well. The walkout lower level (already plumbed for a bathroom) has one spacious finished area, offers additional space to finish if desired & provides generous storage. This property, designed with a multitude of exceptional architectural elements, was finished with great attention to detail, showcasing the beautiful natural setting at each turn. It is a home planned for wonderful family living and impressive entertaining.
