About This Home
As of August 2017Home Sweet Home! Lovely highly energy efficient custom center hall colonial nestled on 1+ acre in the heart of West Windsor. Quality custom craftsmanship is evident upon entering the front door and stepping into the light & bright 2-story foyer. Gleaming and elegant solid oak flooring throughout the first floor, stairway, landing & upstairs hallway complement the natural finish of the solid six-panel doors and trim. The foyer is flanked on either side by the spacious formal living and dining rooms. There is a first floor bedroom or library/den w/large closet adjacent to the FR. (FYI-there is amble room to convert the powder room on 1st level to full bath if needed). Family room features a vaulted ceiling, ceiling fan and two skylights. Here you will experience the warmth of the floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace bordered by palladium windows on either side. The landing above features a balcony with a dramatic view of the family room below. One of the many notable highlights of this home is the gorgeous renovated kitchen which offers beautiful & abundant custom cabinetry, granite counters, a huge breakfast bar, stainless steel applicances (including a Fisher Paykel dishwasher & Dakor stove), a tile backsplash, under the counter lighting, a large pantry & a very spacious breakfast area -- what a wonderful place to share family meals and entertain guests! Right off the kitchen is a covered porch overlooking a huge stone patio. The very private fenced yard is surrounded by mature landscaping with wonderful views and beautiful sunsets! There is a library adjacent to the family room with a large closet & double doors for privacy. On the second floor you will find an open landing which leads to the master suite with a walk-in closet, a very spacious bathroom w/double sinks, Jacuzzi whirlpool tub and a shower stall. In addition there are three more bedrooms, a full bath and laundry facilities which complete this level. There is plenty of storage in the basement and garage. The location of this home is close to WWP Schools, WW Municipal Center, athletic fields, Senior Center, Public Library and PRJ Train Station. Also convenient to Princeton University, McCarter Theatre, many great restaurants, parks, shopping and major roadways. Excellent West Windsor-Plainsboro School District. One year AHS Warranty to the Buyer at closing!
