About This Home
The privacy of a country estate - so close to everything!
Experience total privacy and tasteful luxury on nearly five gated and fenced acres, along with unparalleled convenience to everything that makes the Princeton area so desirable. A selection of elite schools are moments away, commuter trains to NYC and Philadelphia are within a quick drive, and easy access to two international airports and two local airports make travel so much freer. Constructed of the best materials for a seasoned builder’s own family and then maintained to the highest standards, the entire house retains a like-new air. Neutral colors and classic millwork are a timeless backdrop for any decor ranging from highly traditional to boldly playful to simply modern. The graceful foyer and entertaining rooms make a grand statement upon entry, while rooms spanning the rear all open to the outdoors, where the fresh country air immediately puts everyone at ease. A thriving magnolia is the natural centerpiece of the rolling backyard ringed with majestic trees. An area designated for a future pool is tucked to the side near the mud entry, complete with canine amenities and a second half-bath. The kitchen is designed to make hosting as smooth as can be with a walk-in pantry, fridge drawers and every cooking necessity, from double ovens to a professionally-sized Wolf range. A wine cellar, a bar off the knotty pine library and a bar serving the lower level theater room mean refreshments are always close at hand when guests arrive. The fully finished basement also includes a rec room and a gym with a generous sauna and nearby full bath. Upstairs, all five bedrooms are treated to deep soaking tubs, customized closets and access to a deck for the best views of spectacular sunsets and magical moonrises. The primary suite is extra heavenly with two gas fireplaces, one of them warming the airy bath with an oversized multi-head shower. The house was wisely planned to accommodate an elevator, should the need arise, and all systems are state-of-the-art for optimal efficiency. Really nothing was forgotten and no compromises made at this stellar property with a Princeton address. Owner is NJ Licensed Real Estate Agent.
