About This Home
As of June 2025PLEASE SEE AGENT REMARKS ABOUT HIGHEST AND BEST. This sun-soaked 1950s expansive six-bedroom one-level home welcomes with a serious side of charm, pedigree, and potential. Designed by Princeton-trained architect Francis A. Comstock, one of the very first students to graduate from Princeton’s newly formed School of Architecture in 1919, and lovingly maintained by its one and only owner, this home sits on 1.22 lush acres wrapped in English-style walled gardens and anchored by a bluestone patio made for alfresco everything. Nearly every common room opens to the outdoors, inviting light to dance across hardwood floors. The layout is equal parts practical and poetic: a tucked-away primary suite with its own dressing area and en suite, a wing of ancillary bedrooms with two more bathrooms, and a library adjoined by a bedroom and bath that moonlights beautifully as a guest suite. Rooms are impressively large and offer so much flexibility with three fireplaces (as-is) to cozy up to whether in the library, the living room, or the kitchen. Ideal for spreading out in style, this ranch is ready for its glow up. With great flow, timeless design, and gardens that feel like something out of a storybook, just add some imagination and watch it shine!
