Description

On over 2 acres of old growth trees and perennial woodland gardens backing to Witherspoon Woods, this compelling contemporary celebrates and honors nature in every room. Enjoy the leafy views from a wide deck, or framed in the span of glass uniting the living room with brick fireplace, elegant dining room, and 2-story family room lit by clerestory windows. Serving both form and function, the show-stopping, eco-conscious kitchen was completely redone in 2013. Stainless double ovens and induction range...On over 2 acres of old growth trees and perennial woodland gardens backing to Witherspoon Woods, this compelling contemporary celebrates and honors nature in every room. Enjoy the leafy views from a wide deck, or framed in the span of glass uniting the living room with brick fireplace, elegant dining room, and 2-story family room lit by clerestory windows. Serving both form and function, the show-stopping, eco-conscious kitchen was completely redone in 2013. Stainless double ovens and induction range share space with modern glass tile, stunning Danby marble counters and island, and custom Rift Oak cabinetry with low VOC finishes - all locally sourced. Upstairs are 2 full baths, laundry room, and 4 bedrooms, filled with sunshine. Overlooking a lily pond and fountain, the cathedral master suite is a soothing sanctuary, complete with a skylit bath and walk-in closet. A full basement and 2-car garage supply easily-accessible storage. Close to Stuart Country Day School and a short drive to downtown Princeton, but feel worlds away at this serene oasis!
