Excellent value! High quality, custom details and move in ready are the hallmarks of this stately home in Hopewell Township's prestigious Elm Ridge Park. A curving brick walkway leads to a bold red front door, opening into a welcoming foyer. To the left, a formal dining room with ceiling medallion, chandelier and crown molding sets an elegant stage for entertaining; to the right, a spacious living room with wood-burning fireplace opens to an award-winning great room and wet bar addition designed by KSS Architects of Princeton. Stunningly detailed, this room features a cathedral ceiling; full length Pella windows on three sides and a custom geometric window as a focal point; and a French door topped with a half-moon window and ceiling arched to match. The bar or butler's pantry, which connects the great room to the breakfast room, has a vaulted ceiling detailed overhead with pergola and skylight. At the heart of the home, a cook's kitchen opens to the breakfast room, where a second wood-burning fireplace provides ambiance, and a desk and cubbies are cleverly tucked behind folding doors. Kitchen cabinetry matches the panels on the Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, the Bosch dishwasher and the floor-to-ceiling pantry with pull-out shelving. Two Electrolux convection wall ovens and a Dacor cook top round out the appliances. A floor-to-ceiling custom bookcase, one of many in the home, and richly hued Golden Persa granite counters round out the room. On the second level, the master suite features a glassed-in shower with built-in bench and mosaic tile accents and a marble-topped vanity, and a spacious bedroom with three closets. Three other bedrooms share a hall bath with twin sinks. The finished basement has a spacious entertaining area, two counters with seating for four topped with Blue Pearl granite and a powder room, perfect for a media room or teen hang out. A third floor partially finished attic gym or office is sky lit and carpeted, with walk-in storage. Additional walk-up attic storage is accessed from the attached two-car garage. Enjoy a spacious bluestone terrace, park-like yard dotted with mature evergreen and deciduous trees, and garden beds lushly planted with spring-flowering bulbs, summer perennials and shrubbery.
