Description

MID-CENTURY MODERN is the magic word of today! Located in Princeton's Johnson Park area, and set on a beautifully landscaped knoll, this 3 bedroom home is the epitome of timeless elegance. The bluestone-floored breezeway has exposed brick wall, and a delightful "architectural folly" suggests an enclosed porch. Renovated by a well-respected designer as her own home, and continued by the current owner, the materials used are sophisticated, yet functional, with limestone kitchen counters and floor,...MID-CENTURY MODERN is the magic word of today! Located in Princeton's Johnson Park area, and set on a beautifully landscaped knoll, this 3 bedroom home is the epitome of timeless elegance. The bluestone-floored breezeway has exposed brick wall, and a delightful "architectural folly" suggests an enclosed porch. Renovated by a well-respected designer as her own home, and continued by the current owner, the materials used are sophisticated, yet functional, with limestone kitchen counters and floor, and natural wood cabinetry. Sleek top-of-the-line appliances and hardware emphasize its timeless appeal. The formal dining room has a wonderful hanging light fixture, and window wall, and flows gracefully into the living room, each having herringbone floor. The living room fireplace serves as a focal point, having raised slate - topped hearth, and brick facade. Three bedrooms complete the main level, and two full baths have been updated in keeping with the retro style of the house. Connected to the main bedroom, is a delightful screened-in porch, overlooking the glorious gardens. It is clear that a master gardener has been here! Upstairs, you will find a "bonus room", carpeted and absolutely charming, with nooks and crannies galore. A real surprise is the finished room attached to the two car garage. Roof replaced in June 2019. Fireplaces are decorative only, believed to work.
