About This Home
As of January 2025In a storybook corner of Princeton, this gracious French Provincial gem invites you to live your best life in a private, picturesque setting. The gravel courtyard driveway sets the stage for a grand entrance, leading into a world where elegance is the norm. This home is one-level living at its finest. A bold black-and-white tiled foyer sets the tone for the sophisticated spaces beyond. The living and dining rooms are side by side, with a fireplace that beckons you to unwind. Floor-to-ceiling French doors on two sides open up to a balcony overlooking the lawn and to a large deck overlooking a perennial flower garden and serene pond. The family room, complete with built-in bookcases and a second fireplace, offers another access point to the large back deck. A wet bar alcove seamlessly connects the formal and informal rooms, perfect for impromptu cocktail hours. The sunny, remodeled kitchen is a dream come true, featuring glass-front cabinetry, gleaming granite counters, and top-of-the-line appliances. A built-in banquette ensures the chef is never alone. Practicality meets style in the mudroom, complete with a laundry station and a built-in bench with hooks and cubbies to keep everything organized. The spacious first-floor main bedroom with French doors to the deck and two separate but adjoining baths provide an owner’s oasis. Two additional bedrooms—one with a bay window and the other with loads of built-in bookshelves—and an additional full bath offer plenty of space for everyone. The lower level provides an expansive extra room that opens to its own shaded brick terrace, as well as a large shelved storage room and a finished basement workshop, adding yet another layer to this exquisite home. The spacious suite above the two-car garage, complete with a bathroom and kitchenette, is the perfect guest accommodation.
