About This Home

Sophisticated yet welcoming, grand yet livable, this home is luxury without compromise. From the moment you arrive, via a circular drive anchored by a statement fountain, you’re transported to a home that feels both timeless and unforgettable, with manicured grounds that echo the elegance of a private European estate. Inside, a dramatic butterfly staircase sets the tone for interiors that balance architectural sophistication with modern comfort. The living room and dining room both have French doors and bespoke finishes. Sunlight pours through arched windows and glass doors in the family room, illuminating a space designed as much for intimate evenings as for unforgettable get-togethers. A fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, while the seamless indoor-outdoor flow invites every occasion to extend onto the bluestone terraces and resort-style grounds. Beyond the sparkling pool and separate spa area, a newly opened expanse of lush lawn creates verdant usable space, ideal for everything from games to a tented, catered affair. The chef’s kitchen is nothing short of exceptional. Outfitted with premium appliances, including dual dishwashers and additional refrigeration drawers, it has room to bake, cook, prep, and gather without ever feeling crowded. Equally impressive are the home’s refined personal spaces. Two potential primary suites, one on the main level with direct access to the outdoors and another upstairs, provide options for homeowners no matter what stage of life. The first-floor suite has a new, customized closet and there’s an updated bathroom. The second suite upstairs has a large walk-in and a private bathroom, while the other two bedrooms share a hall bathroom. An oversized laundry room, mudroom, and adjacent half bath, one of two powder rooms, are perfectly positioned near the four-car garage. The lower level is a destination in its own right, a sprawling entertainment space complete with a bar, wine room, full bath, and walk-out access. Every detail of this home has been curated to perfection. There is even a fully integrated four-zone Sonos sound system, allowing music and ambiance to follow you inside and out. Montgomery Township is known for its nationally recognized public schools and access to nearby esteemed private schools. Enjoy proximity to downtown Princeton, parks, shopping, Bedens Brook and Cherry Valley Country Clubs, dining, and multiple commuter routes.
