Two of the area’s most seasoned design forces, architect Glen Fries and decorator Judy King, teamed up to enhance an historic property’s best attributes and amend the floorplan to reach the height of its potential for elegant modern living and high-style entertaining. The results are spectacular and full of architectural elements and reimagined fixtures you will never see twice. The largest spaces are also the most frequently used: the chef-ready kitchen with appliances posing as furniture, a concrete island that only gets better with age and a great room expansion featuring a monumental stone fireplace, a wet bar and home theater. Quieter private spaces include a first floor study that looks out onto the stone terrace and a library-like office with a covered balcony basking in blooming tree views. The latter is part of the main bedroom suite loaded with enveloping warmth from hand-hewn beams, artisan and antique doors and grasscloth walls. The boutique-style closet received equal attention to detail. Pretty marble bathrooms serve 3 more bedrooms, one with its own dressing area. Even utilitarian spaces are not to be dismissed, like the mudroom with custom-finished doors or a powder room with sculpturesque sink. Last, but far from least, is the party-perfect, 3-bay, barn-style garage with a half bath and stylish gym/office that spills out to the yard, your own bucolic Eden with an arbored path leading to a sweet fenced garden. At the end of the country-quaint stone driveway, it’s less than 3 miles and a single turn to the center of Princeton with several of the area’s finest schools immediately nearby.
