Property Description

This is a house that understands how to live well! Set on more than two acres in a distinguished enclave of fine homes, this expansive home unfolds with ease and polish. Surrounded by some of the area’s most coveted golf clubs, close to acclaimed public and private schools, and just a short drive from Princeton, the setting offers prestige and practicality in equal measure. Inside, the atmosphere is warm, gracious, and beautifully composed. A stylish entry opens to an impressive foyer, where the living room and dining room stand on either side, each enriched by tasteful millwork and a sense of timeless proportion. In the Great Room, soaring windows rise to the ceiling and draw in an abundance of natural light, creating a bright and welcoming centerpiece for daily life. A wood-burning fireplace brings character here, while the living room offers its own gas fireplace. Just beyond, a luminous conservatory extends the home’s entertaining capacity when gatherings grow. Tucked nearby are a den and a powder room. The sunlit kitchen is designed to be as functional as it is attractive. It features a generous central island with seating for four and a prep sink, an oversized Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a Dacor six-burner cooktop crowned by a professional hood. The adjoining dining area, laundry, and mudroom, along with a secondary staircase to the bedroom level, make the choreography of daily life feel seamless. Upstairs, the newly carpeted second floor offers spacious rooms and a landing that overlooks both the foyer and Great Room below. Two bedrooms share a bath, while a guest suite enjoys its own private bathroom. The main suite is a true sanctuary, indulgent in both scale and design, with three large walk-in closets, a kitchenette, a private home office or sitting room, bathroom, and a serene bedroom with a window seat. The walk-out lower level continues the home’s effortless sense of luxury, offering an array of spaces dedicated to leisure. A home theater, gym, recreation room, full bath, and wine cellar create a destination all their own. Outdoors, the home opens onto an inviting paver patio and a resort-inspired backyard with an outdoor kitchen, pool, and spa, all set within a large, fenced expanse of lawn. The well-manicured neighborhood with sidewalks provides a peaceful sense of community without the additional fees or restrictions of a homeowners association.
