Property Description

Set in a desirable Montgomery Township location with a Princeton mailing address, this expanded and thoughtfully updated split-level residence offers approximately 2,400 square feet of comfortable main living space, seamlessly complemented by an exceptional 3,800-square-foot addition designed for grand-scale gathering, creativity, and celebration. The open-concept main home features three to four bedrooms, airy living and dining areas - vaulted, sky-lit ceiling in the kitchen with commercial appliances and upscale finishes that support everyday living. Connected to the residence, the remarkable 50-foot-long entertainment space introduces a rare opportunity: a dramatic, acoustically enhanced space equally suited to large family celebrations, musical performances, cultural festivities, art display, or studio-style creative pursuits - all within the privacy of a residential setting. A dedicated chef's kitchen positioned directly behind the hall allows effortless hosting for events of up to 60 guests, enabling seamless preparation and service for memorable dinners and milestone occasions. Complimenting the entertaining experience, a glass enclosed wine cellar creates an inviting focal point for tasting and display, while a full and half bath provide convenience for gatherings. Above the addition, a substantial upper level spans the entire footprint, offering exceptional flexibility with a private office or lounge, a gym, a fifth bedroom suite-ideal for guest accommodations, fabulous work-from-home space, or extended living arrangements. Whether envisioned for multi-generational living, gala or art gatherings, holiday celebrations, performances, or expansive entertaining, the space adapts beautifully to a wide range of lifestyle needs. For those seeking flexibility, the addition also offers potential to be further integrated into the home's living areas, creating an extraordinary residence tailored to personal vision. Rarely does a property present such scale, versatility, and opportunity in a sought-after Montgomery Township setting just minutes from the University town of Princeton for shopping, dining or evening ice cream strolls.
