Sparkling new renovations to the open kitchen and palatial primary bathroom designed by Bruce Norman Long, among other expertly completed improvements, elevate this Littlebrook home to showplace standards.

Whether you enter through the gracious foyer or the freshly tiled...Sparkling new renovations to the open kitchen and palatial primary bathroom designed by Bruce Norman Long, among other expertly completed improvements, elevate this Littlebrook home to showplace standards. The floor plan, complete with a fully finished basement, handles a modern lifestyle with aplomb, yet detailed millwork, multiple French doors and warm finishing touches establish a traditional aesthetic that never falls out of style. Whether you enter through the gracious foyer or the freshly tiled side entry off the three-car garage, a handy powder room is ready and waiting. Pro-level Wolf appliances, seamless slabs of marble and white shaker cabinetry - custom-built with all the bells and whistles - will serve the home chef in classic style for years to come, while a built-in, mahogany-topped breakfast nook is a cozy spot with an open view into the family room. A gas fireplace and floor-to-ceiling built-ins ground this large gathering space, while the living room is sized for more intimate conversation. In addition to a handsomely outfitted office, four upper bedrooms offer comfort and quietude amid high-end details, like bespoke window treatments and designer lighting. Two share a pristine new bathroom, and the new primary bath is a true luxury retreat with a heated marble floor, soaking tub and glimmering fixtures. Custom walk-in closets, substantial built-ins and an upstairs laundry room keep everything beautifully organized. With a kitchenette, half bath and exercise studio, the lower level is ready for anything, while untapped space above the garage will easily serve any unmet need. Perhaps the best part: Littlebrook Elementary School is only 6/10 of a mile away and downtown Princeton is just over a mile. Shutters are currently red; black shutters shown for illustrative purposes.
