There is no where you can turn in this home and not be captivated by the attention to detail.<br />
First, the broad strokes: gleaming hardwood floors; layered crown moldings and trims; elegant turned staircase with lustrous railing; three levels of living space plus a finished basement with wine cellar; and impeccably groomed landscaping with year-round appeal.<br />
And now the finer details, beginning with the sunken living room, made inviting with a comfortable window seat, custom window treatments, and a see-through fireplace offering glimpses of the adjoining family room with built-in cabinetry on one wall, and double French doors opening to the raised deck. Spacious enough for two distinct groupings of seating, the deck overlooks the deep back yard with fire pit. <br />
Next is the professionally designed kitchen with a mix of java and white cabinetry, paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator, and full suite of stainless steel appliances, including a 6-burner Wolf stove with griddle beneath a custom hood. A pair of oversized copper-hued pendants top the spacious island, which seats at least six on bar stools and bench. Warm taupe tile for the backsplash elegantly melds with deep brown and white tones, while Carrera marble on the island and countertops tie everything together. Nearby, a walk-in pantry’s checkerboard floor and white shelves add old-world charm.<br />
Completing the first level are the mud/laundry room near the attached garage, a powder room with vessel sink and wainscot, and a home office with built-ins, plantation shutters, and French doors.<br />
The second level is home to a Jack and Jill suite with wall-to-wall carpeting and shared bath, plus the master suite with twin walk-ins and spa-like bath featuring a vessel tub, large glass-doored shower with rain head, twin vanities, and herringbone-patterned tile floor. The third level is home to two bedrooms, each with window seats and built-in display cubbies, and a shared bath.<br />
The elegance extends even to the finished basement, with black coffered dropped ceilings in two areas, and a copper-tiled in a third. There’s a wine cellar here, plus plenty of concealed storage.<br />
Now on to the location: a peaceful cul-de-sac that sees little traffic, offers quick access to commuter routes and nearby towns, including Princeton and Lawrenceville, and is near parks and walking trails for outdoor enthusiasts. |
