Down a quiet country lane off Carter Road, house, gardens and reflecting pool are all custom designed and built. Add to that a three car barn with a changing room and loft space. It~s romance from every angle: from the washed brick and espaliered trees in front, tothe back deck and stone patio poised to take in the picturesque, tree-edged pond. Throughout, there are hardwood floors, lots of light, and windows carefully placed to show views on walls showing the grounds north/south or east/west. Inside the unique dining room was built by hand in 1931 using cherry wood milled on site. The mantle, niches, and fireplace surround are all hand carved cherry. The living room was added in 1995 framed by Palladian-topped windows designed by Princeton architect Michael Farewell. Large kitchen is ready for reinvention. With a wet bar, full bath, andpegged hardwoods, the vast family room could easily host guests. Upstairs, 2 full baths handle 3 light bedrooms that are flexible and private. Providing peace of mind are a generator and a new septic system to be installed. A rare and beautiful property!
