About This Home

As of December 2023

AGENT UPDATE: FINAL & BEST OFFERS DUE BY WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18TH @ 12 NOON. Harmoniously fusing artistry and nature, 323 Hopewell Amwell Road is a contemporary gem on a hilltop setting overlooking eight sprawling acres of lush, undulating terrain. Commissioned with the discerning eye of the artist owner and renowned architect Robert Hillier, this home was meticulously crafted to serve as both a canvas to display artwork within and a frame for the natural splendors that surround it. Tucked away at the end of a long drive, the home is the quintessence of privacy. A circular drive provides a gracious welcome for guests, as well as an easy turnaround, while the driveway continues around to the rear where the two-car garage is hidden from sight, and additional parking is available. The main living area is an open concept space with hardwood floors, clean lines, neutral colors and large expanses of glass that effortlessly invite the outside world in. Step outside from the family room, kitchen or the studio/den and a stunning brick patio becomes a veritable stage for indoor/outdoor entertaining. Inside, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a floating stone slab hearth is centered between built-in bookshelves, providing a striking focal point in the family room. The kitchen offers sophisticated minimalism with clean-lined walnut cabinetry, white Caesarstone quartz countertops, classic tile backsplash and a butcher block center island accented with pendant lighting and a Wolf cooktop. Just past the kitchen, a studio or work-from-home potential with vaulted ceiling, clerestory windows, sink, and counter space, is equipped with open shelves, storage cabinets, and closets. Completing the main floor is the primary bedroom encompassing dual closets and an en suite bath. The upper level hosts four sizeable bedrooms that share two refreshed hall baths. The finished basement provides an additional recreation area and a spacious laundry room. Additional highlights of this impressive property include a fenced, raised bed garden, whole house generator, brand new septic system and energy-efficient hybrid/dual fuel heating system. Set amid Hopewell’s bucolic charm, this property is just down the road from local eateries, galleries, antique shops and parks with an easy commute to Princeton and the River Towns.
