    What's special

    PERFECTION PERSONIFIED ! Set on over 2 acres on Princeton's Ridge, this five bedroom Georgian colonial offers the perfect combination of elegance and warmth. Professionally landscaped , with dozens of perennials, evergreens, and mature trees, you can feel far from the madding crowd, yet be just minutes from town. Entering the house, you are struck~by the symmetry and grace of the rooms ; not just the shape, but the dimensions. The 2 storey entry foyer alone is 18 by 15 feet, and it opens into the living room, which measures 33 x 25 . Adjacent to the living room, is a sweet sunroom, for relaxing and reading. French doors open from the living~room to perennial gardens~with a generous bluestone terrace, and a beautiful heated inground pool, edged in bluestone. Privacy abounds, so while you are doing your laps, you feel as if you are in a secluded wonderland ---and you are!Virtually all of the first floor rooms open to the gardens, bringing the light in, and making access easy. 2020-08-12
