About This Home
As of May 2023Located minutes from downtown Princeton, this stunning home sits on over 7 acres at the end of a cul-de-sac of lovely homes, Enjoy panoramic views of rolling hillside and the backdrop of Princeton Ridge from your beautiful Trex deck in your very private backyard. Most of the property is natural with trees, beautiful views, and the relaxing sound of the Rock Brook as it flows far below on an adjacent property. Major renovations by Princeton Design Guild took this custom 5-bedroom 4.1 bath home built in 1993 to a new level of elegance while maintaining the character of the original peaceful retreat. Perfect for entertaining with connecting rooms off the 2-story entry enhanced by natural light from the many large sliders, windows, and skylights. A large office on the first floor adds flexibility and the kitchen connects to a breakfast room with cathedral ceiling and windows on all sides. Upstairs the primary bedroom enjoys a spa-like bath with a soaking tub also situated to take full advantage of the view. Three other bedrooms, 2 more full baths, laundry, and storage room complete the 2nd floor. There is a finished basement with an elevator to the first floor and a walk-out entrance to the patio and fenced backyard. The large room in the basement has a door to the patio and an attached bathroom with a roll-in shower (no threshold) to accommodate a wheelchair; as well as other rooms for cooking, dining, and relaxing. Septic system designed and approved for a 5-bedroom house.
A few other features include an over-sized composite deck (1200 sq ft TrexPro Platinum deck with post lighting and stairs to backyard completed 5/12/20), Bosch Dish Washer (2019), Sub Zero Refrigerator (2017), 3-car garage, 3 fireplaces, Water Heater (2019), 2 newer furnaces (2017), 2 newer AC condensers (2018), Pennacchi & Sons Masonry (2022), backyard fence (2015), and a Generac generator (2015).
