About This Home
As of June 2024Situated at 2 Puritan Court in a secluded cul-de-sac in Princeton, this newly renovated Mid-Century Modern home offers breathtaking views from high above the Stony Brook and the surrounding forest. With 7 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and a total lot size of 2.14 acres, this home provides an unparalleled living experience.
The home was designed around the surrounding nature, resulting in sensational views from every room. The property underwent extensive renovation in the last year including an updated open-floor plan, 6 renovated bathrooms, new plumbing and electric systems, high-end kitchen cabinets, countertops and appliances, new and revitalized hardwood flooring, new lighting, and an added mudroom and central laundry room. Externally, the home features a new standing metal seam roof, updated stucco, a new blue stone patio, and new exterior sliding doors.
The expansive formal spaces offer stunning views of the stream, complemented by a large office and 2 family rooms that exude tranquility. The living room is adorned with a wood-burning fireplace and floor to ceiling glass doors that lead to an elevated deck with water views. Vaulted ceilings with skylights spill natural sunlight into the home’s radiant spaces.
The floor plan is suitable for a multi-generational household that enjoys entertaining, with 3 bedrooms and full bathrooms on the main level and another 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on the upper level. The primary suite on the upper level is the highlight of the home and features more sweeping views of the surrounding nature and flowing water, a Juliet balcony, a dressing closet, and a fireplace.
This Princeton retreat offers a unique living experience centered around a serene connection with the surrounding nature.
