About This Home
As of May 2024A handsome brick colonial situated on over 4 acres in a private enclave, lovingly maintained by its current owners. The gracious foyer is a welcoming sight, with both public reception rooms flanking either side. The large, bright living room is the perfect place for entertaining. The marble fireplace makes for a dramatic focal point for the room. Leading from the living room, and with double doors, for privacy, if necessary, is the study. Although how much studying will happen when you see the view from the room beyond. The sunroom is spectacular! The three walls of windows and two glass doors provide views and access to the property beyond. Skylights provide more natural light. Note the design detail of the glass tile inset in the floor, to complement the in-ground pool, just outside. The kitchen is well appointed; with Wolf double oven, cook top with grill and microwave, and Subzero fridge. The cherry cabinets, granite counters and cream subway tile back splash complement each other. Note the undercabinet lighting. The breakfast area has a French door to the patio and pool beyond. To the front of the home is the classic dining room with its chair rail and moldings. From the kitchen there is the family room. Imagine cozy nights by the fire in this room with its vaulted, beam ceilings and wall of doors to the patio. The wet bar with sink provides a great entertaining feature too! On the second floor, the main bedroom suite is an oasis from the everyday hustle and bustle. The dressing area, en-route to the bath, is comprised of a wall of built-in storage and a good-sized walk-in closet. The private bath has a double vanity with built-in storage, deep soaking jetted tub, and a large separate shower with both hand-held/angled and overhead “rain-shower” heads. Note the heated towel rail. Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a full bath, Jack and Jill Style. Bedroom 4 is its own private suite, with sitting room and private bath. The basement is unfinished which is perfect for storage. Note the wine cellar. The house also has a two-car attached garage. The back lot leads directly to the newly formed Princeton Ridge protected “emerald necklace” woodlands comprising 44+ acres of preserved lands with many walking paths, nature sites and historic features. All told this is a great home in a tranquil location only minutes away from schools, the university and downtown. Make it your home today!
