About This Home
As of August 2020This spectacular home is nestled in a large oversize lot in Riverside comprising of over 2.6 acres. The mature trees and plantings provide a park-like setting for this home which is accentuated by the 100 yard setback from the road. The first floor makes good use of the surroundings with access to the property and providing views to die for. The large kitchen, open to breakfast area and family sitting room beyond is breathtaking, not just for its large window and sky lights that bring in natural light, but the design itself. The Stainless steel appliances such as Dacor 6 burner cook top, Subzero Fridge and Bosch Wall oven compliment the stainless steel counter tops and mosaic tile backsplash. The built-in cubby and bench in the breakfast are perfect for storage when entering the home from the garage. The sitting area beyond the breakfast area is great for gatherings and to wait for meals to be served! For a quiet spot, the library or the parlor is the place to be! The large living room opens to the covered patio and heated covered pool and to the large patio that is surrounded by the home on three sides. There are two bedrooms on the first floor which share a newly renovated bathroom and a dining room completes the first floor, with gracious built-ins which mirror the ones in the living room. The Master suite on the second floor has a newly renovated bath with large shower with bench and vanities. There are two other bedrooms on the second floor and a hall bath. The basement is partially finished and provides storage areas too. Such an oasis is hard to find in Princeton, in this location, access to the NYC bus is easy and it is convenient to all the amenities that Princeton has to offer. Riverside Elementary School too!
