Timber Farm, just minutes from downtown Princeton, comprises 8 rolling acres once covered in Christmas trees. Now it’s the perfectly groomed site of a gambrel-roofed residence with a matching, oversized, carriage-style garage and a paddock with 3-stall shed. A new bluestone patio accessed by four sets of French doors is the perfect spot to take in the setting, as is the delightful screened-in porch off the living room. Expertly chosen finishes add a touch of glamor to the interior, where 11-ft ceilings are the norm on both floors and keystone arches mark the passage between rooms. White oak floors were just refinished and several custom windows were replaced or repaired, brightening up the whole house. The study’s lacquered built-ins, the wet bar’s metallic walls and a pastoral mural that transforms even the mudroom into a charming destination are some of the flourishes that elevate spaces to showhouse-worthy status. The robin’s egg blue kitchen is a highlight with a soapstone sink, professional Wolf range and one of six Rumford-style fireplaces. A new Bosch dishwasher is just one of several new appliances found throughout the house. The gracious main suite boasts a boutique-like dressing room, a versatile sitting room, and a sprawling basketweave tiled bath. New faucets by Newport Brass freshen up the timelessly styled bathrooms, including one serving a princess-worthy bedroom with an airy sunroom to use as you wish. Studio accommodations for a caretaker or au pair are steps beyond the brick breezeway. So many improvements completed in the past two years are sure to make life easier and more comfortable for the next stewards of this thoroughly enchanting property.
