About This Home
As of June 2018Talented architects, past and present, had a hand in making this Princeton home the picture perfect presence it is today. Originally designed by William Thompson with additions overseen by Max Hayden, it offers a choice of spaces for entertaining and relaxing. The third contributor and current owner created a lush and private oasis of green on 2.4 acres, complete with a sparkling pool and enchanting garden belle topped with a weathervane. In front, a crushed stone courtyard is a lovely preamble to the elegant marble foyer with French doors framing a walled terrace. The sunken living room with traditional fireplace can host a crowd with ease. A study with cathedral beamed ceiling and built-ins adjoins, as does a family room separated by French doors. A wet bar and a corner fireplace beckon guests to the library after a meal in the dining room, which also flows out to the terrace via French doors. Viking appliances, just 3 years old, bring a professional edge to the refined country kitchen with big breakfast room adjoining. Five bedrooms include a main level suite and the cathedral master suite with separate his and hers dressing areas. Also upstairs, a bright bonus room lined with shelving is perfect for play, homework or crafting. The multi-room walk-out basement hosts the fifth bedroom and a bathroom. With its doors positioned around back, the garage is an attractive feature connected via a porte-cochere and mudroom. Don't miss the recently installed 20,000kw generator too! Minutes to downtown Princeton and Johnson Park school district.
