About This Home
As of October 2014Own a piece of history on Grover's Mill Pond that was famously witness to Orson Welles War of the Worlds. This charming home and 3+ acre property feel like a sanctuary from the moment you enter the long driveway. Your blood pressure goes down and you'll experience the tranquility that this home and land affords. This wonderful home is warm yet open with a large dining room/living room with vaulted ceilings and numerous windows as well as a slider to the stamped concrete patio out back. Hardwood floors throughout as well as Andersen energy efficient windows and a Trane heating and air conditioning system make for comfortable living. The kitchen is highly functional with custom cabinetry, Miele dishwasher, Subzero fridge and a lovely bay window. Off of the kitchen and mudroom is a wonderful flex space that can be a family room or playroom. But the absolute beauty of this property is the versatility of its use. Live in it as is with views of the pond or plan to build a custom home further down the lot, closer to the pond. It's also been suggested that you could build a wonderful outdoor cabana and patio near the pond for entertaining while expanding the existing home. The possibilities are endless, bounded only by your imagination. Take advantage of this rare, waterfront opportunity in highly desirable West Windsor!
