About This Home
As of December 2012Come see a masterful Georgian revival, perhaps Princeton Boro's most dramatic newly built home in years. Traditional elements summon a bygone era with the conveniences of modern construction. Through custom front doors, an elegant foyer reveals the impact of extraordinary detail; rough hewn wood floors and arched transoms adorn each room with genuine scale. Living & dining rooms, a study, the gourmet kitchen, a bedroom, a library and an incredible master suite are impeccably finished on the main floor. A laundry/mudroom and au-pair room meet the needs of today's busy lifestyle. Upstairs a 2nd master suite opens onto a limestone terrace. 3 more bedrooms each have a distinct feel. An upstairs study is great for games, and a walk up attic offers potential finished space or abundant storage. The attached garage is mirrored by another that is currently used as bonus space for any possible need; gym, yoga studio, art studio, etc. The rear yard has a perfect pool and pool house. All in the Western Section!
