About This Home

As of August 2024

A Modern Masterpiece in the Littlebrook Section! Nestled in the coveted Littlebrook area of Princeton, this newly renovated and expanded home at 42 Gulick Road represents the pinnacle of modern elegance and thoughtful design. Set on a serene half-acre lot, the property boasts a quiet neighborhood ambiance combined with luxurious living spaces, high-end finishes and wonderful use of private outdoor spaces. As you approach, the home commands attention with its striking Hardie Plank facade, accented by sophisticated black-trimmed windows. The meticulous hardscaping enhances its curb appeal, featuring a paver walkway that meanders from the front around to a raised patio at the side of the house, and yet another raised patio at the back of the house—perfect for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Upon entering, you are greeted by a versatile first-floor study tucked behind double doors, complete with an oversized window overlooking the lush front lawn and direct patio access, providing a tranquil escape from the workday. This room also includes an en suite bath, offering flexibility as a guest suite or additional bedroom. The heart of the home is the expansive great room, where large windows flank a stylish gas fireplace, and sliding glass doors open to a side patio and the impressive rear raised patio. This outdoor haven is ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, enveloped in the tranquility of your private backyard. Adjacent to the great room, the gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring a large island with a prep sink, wine fridge, and seating under elegant pendant lighting. Gleaming quartz countertops and pristine white cabinetry provide a fresh and inviting atmosphere, complemented by top-of-the-line appliances, including a SubZero refrigerator and a 36" Bosch Pro gas range. The adjacent dining room, with dual sliding doors, extends the living space outdoors, enhancing the flow and utility of this magnificent home. Upstairs, a cozy pajama lounge serves as a central hub, leading to four well-appointed en suite bedrooms. Two bedrooms share access to a charming balcony, adding a touch of luxury to everyday living. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, featuring a spacious dressing room, access to a large private balcony, and a grand en suite bathroom with a double vanity, large multi-head shower, and a freestanding tub. The finished basement offers additional versatile space, ideal for a recreation area, plus a home gym, play room or extra office, ensuring comfort and convenience on every level. A discreetly housed sump pump promises peace of mind, however, the builder has painstakingly prepared the land to prevent water drainage problems, so you just may never get to hear the sump pump in use. Located just moments from Lake Carnegie and downtown Princeton, this home is perfectly positioned for both privacy and accessibility, near top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and recreational venues. Experience the perfect blend of style, comfort, and location at 42 Gulick Road—a truly exquisite property awaiting its next discerning owner.
