About This Home

As of October 2014

Set on a high, generous lot amidst the bucolic farmlands of Somerset County sits this well-cared for traditional and spacious colonial. Interior features include beautiful, solid oak hardwood flooring throughout the main and upper levels (with the exception of kitchen and baths). Stained, solid wood trim and molding tell of the craftsmanship that went into the construction of this charming home. A traditional and functional design maximizes living areas with no wasted space. The large living room with long picture window flows easily through a large entry opening into the formal dining room. The kitchen is expansive and optimizes the beautiful view of the backyard through a large window in the eating area ? with a personal touch this area will be one of the favorite rooms to enjoy. A side door takes you out to a quaint patio area and the spacious yard where ethereal honey locust trees provide shade and a resting place for a multitude of bird life ? tranquil evenings are accented with gentle bird sounds and the occasional turkey call. Back inside, the rustic family room features warm paneling, exposed decorative beams and a natural stone wood burning fireplace. Large and inviting, the entire family can relax and enjoy the warmth during chilly evenings. Hardwood floors take you upstairs into a surprisingly spacious landing. If a second level laundry area is preferred then this is an ideal space as it backs to roomy full bathroom shared by three nicely-sized bedrooms. The master bedroom offers its own full bathroom along with a makeup station and deep walk-in closet. More living and storage space can be found just a short flight down into a substantial basement with comfortably high ceilings and a bank of sliding windows for plenty of natural light and fresh air. This home site offers the best of what nature has to offer not only within the property lines but just down the street where one will find acres of protected parklands with miles of hiking trails and fishing ponds. Historically preserved and well-regarded Griggstown Farm can be found around the corner where one can join their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program designed to offer customers fresh, local, naturally-grown produce at an affordable cost. With a Princeton zip code, the downtown is less than 10 miles away and it is an easy drive to all major commuter routes. Just had a complete septic inspection ask agent for details!
