The covered front porch, recently renovated, offers a view of the sweeping and deep front lawn, a magnificent shade tree nearby, and a tree-rimmed field across the way. Stepping in, the first thing you notice is how sunny the home is. The family room, up a short flight of stairs to the left, is spacious with a deep bow window facing the front yard. Down a short flight of stairs is the spacious family room, which features a dining area beneath a vaulted ceiling, and windows on three walls to frame panoramic views of the gorgeous backyard, the highlight of which is the built-in pool with diving board. From the family room, step into the refurbished kitchen, which features lovely solid wood cabinetry, black granite counters accented with flecks of gold and copper, stainless steel appliances (including a five-burner gas stove), oversized porcelain tile floor, and an elegant backsplash of gold and copper glass tile. Depending on how formal the meal is, easily reach the family room dining area from one side, and the formal dining area from the other. It s near the formal dining room that you ll find the bonus room, which over the years has served as a play room, game room and guest room, and now is a bedroom. With its first-floor location, private entrance from the driveway, and a full bath nearby, it is ideal for in-laws, college students and au pairs. Completing the lower level is a mudroom entry near the driveway. Upstairs, three nicely sized bedrooms share a hall bath with Corian-topped vanity and tub/shower combo. The master suite is a restful retreat with its spa-like bathroom, the highlight of which is an oversized shower featuring two shower heads, one of them thoughtfully positioned near the built-in bench. This home sits on 1.7 expertly landscaped acres, and on clear nights delivers uninterrupted views of star-filled heavens. It s also conveniently located all top rated Montgomery twp schools and near Route 206, and is within easy commuting distance of the Brunswicks, Princeton, Somerville and Hillsborough.
