Property Description

An extraordinary modern home guided by the principles of the Arts and Crafts movement showcases the beauty of natural materials and artisan-made details throughout a meticulously planned interior. Princeton Design Guild completed the project in 2011. Soon after, it was featured on the annual Princeton House Tour, an invitation for all to come appreciate the combination of exotic woods sourced from around the world, as well as lovely treetop views of the historic neighborhood edging Princeton University campus. The memorable details begin right at the front door decorated with celestial-themed inlays. Custom Loewen windows, handsome built-in storage and a stacked stone fireplace set the scene in the living room, which is unmarred by a TV, thanks to an ingenious hidden lift. The kitchen features distinctly grained rainforest marble atop Koa and Zebrawood cabinetry. A charcoal gray Viking range and separate warming drawer, instant hot and filtered water as well as an integrated Miele coffee station are some of the high-end appliances that have been serviced like clockwork. From the dining room, step through extra-tall glass doors to a terrace paved in rainbow sandstone perched above the newly fenced lawn edged with evergreen holly trees. You can also enjoy a view of the streetscape from a balcony off the main bedroom suite. A built-in workstation, a steam shower within the all-marble bath, Electrolux laundry appliances and a completely tricked out dressing room converted from the fourth bedroom make the entire second level a five-star owner's retreat. The third floor is another destination unto itself with a sprawling rooftop terrace and a lounge area outside two more bedrooms. Down in the clean-as-a-whistle basement, you'll find plentiful storage and a Savant Smart Home system that controls the climate, Lutron lighting, media and security throughout the whole home, as well as a Generac generator that ensures your comfort is never disrupted. Don't miss the handy driveway side entry or the outdoor storage alcoves that keep firewood and garbage bins neatly tucked away - further proof that every inch of this in-town home was planned to perfection!
