About This Home

As of December 2024

Nature lovers, gardeners and architecture buffs will all find themselves smitten with this intriguing lakeside home, where owners and their lucky guests can gather together to enjoy the 3.2-acre setting and then retreat to spaces reserved solely for them. Architect John Clarke oriented the Post-Modern home and supporting structures to frame a courtyard garden entry that sets the tone for the extraordinary experience to come. Peaked ceilings, circular windows and geometric built-ins give the home’s open interior a dynamic, yet orderly, feel that delights all who enter. French doors spanning the great room open to a patio embraced by blooms, including wisteria entwined and draped over a pergola. Open the garden gate, cross the meadow, then cast your rod or launch your kayak. Living a healthy outdoor lifestyle is as easy as that! Then, at day’s end, savor a stunning sunset along with a meal prepared in the modern kitchen, renovated in warm wood tones and matte black stone. A sleek professional hood is all that separates pull-up seating from the efficient workspace. The nearby laundry/mud room, enlivened by hand-painted tiles, sports the same custom wood cabinetry. The home’s private areas include a roomy walk-in closet, an up-to-date bath and a tower-like office. The full basement is a clean slate for whatever indoor hobbies you wish to pursue. Follow the path to the guest cottage, where the sunny living space has a sculptural wood stove and an ingenious staircase that leads to a loft bedroom. A private deck completes your guests’ weekend getaway experience. Solar panels ensure efficiency all through the year. Only 3 miles from Main Street in Pennington, 9.3 miles from Princeton, 11 miles from Lambertville, and 12.5 miles to the Hamilton Train Station… Come see!
