Description
Set at the end of a private road, this custom contemporary offers remarkable privacy on 2.5 wooded acres bordered by preserved state land, creating a tranquil setting just minutes from Princeton and its renowned dining, shopping, and cultural attractions. Designed to celebrate its natural surroundings, expansive windows, soaring ceilings, skylights, and multiple decks blur the line between indoors and out while framing peaceful woodland views from nearly every room. The dramatic open floor plan is anchored by a striking three-sided freestanding fireplace that brings warmth and ambiance to the great room as well as the dining area. The gourmet kitchen was updated in 2021 with a Thermador oven, Thermador dishwasher, and Delta faucet. Just beyond, a dedicated home office opens directly to the deck, making outdoor breaks effortless. A main-level bedroom sits beside a full bath, while upstairs an airy loft with its own private deck leads to the spacious primary suite, which also enjoys a private deck and a bathroom. Another bedroom and third full bath provide ample room for everyone. Above it all, a ladder-accessed bonus perch creates an inviting reading nook and there's a lower-level room with sliding doors to a patio that is currently used as a gym. Recent improvements include a new well pump and central air conditioning (2025), updated roof, reverse osmosis system, water softener, refreshed interior paint, and updated decking. Outside, a fire pit, generous guest parking, and an attached oversized one-car garage with additional storage space complete this peaceful woodland setting.
