Description

Princeton living doesn’t get any more picture-perfect than this timeless colonial by Rolf Bauhan, the beloved architect known for his dedication to craftsmanship and storybook character. The charming stone home was expertly enlarged by both Peter Morgan and Max Hayden, often called upon to imbue historic spaces with modern functionality. Now, banks of windows in the generously scaled formal rooms look out across stone terraces to survey the beautiful 2-acre grounds, where irises and astilbe burst...Princeton living doesn’t get any more picture-perfect than this timeless colonial by Rolf Bauhan, the beloved architect known for his dedication to craftsmanship and storybook character. The charming stone home was expertly enlarged by both Peter Morgan and Max Hayden, often called upon to imbue historic spaces with modern functionality. Now, banks of windows in the generously scaled formal rooms look out across stone terraces to survey the beautiful 2-acre grounds, where irises and astilbe burst with blooms along brick walkways and dogwoods and redbuds thrive beside 40 acres of preserved land. Conveniently located on the first floor, the dreamy main suite also takes full advantage of the setting with pairs of French doors beneath a high, beamed ceiling. Storage is ample and so is elbow room in the pretty gray and white bath trimmed with wainscoting. A nearby office with a wall of built-ins is ideally sized for working from home or enjoying your favorite show in cozy comfort. The custom kitchen sports a brand new Wolf range under a stainless steel hood and well-made cherry cabinetry. Positioned at the top of the back staircase, a family/playroom loaded with storage for toys and games feels easily accessible, yet out of the way. Three polished bathrooms and countless closets serve 4 upper bedrooms, all with hardwood floors just as handsome as those below. Truly a rare treasure close to a selection of renowned schools and outdoor recreation ranging from golf to horseback riding!
