DELIGHTFUL in Littlebrook! This inviting 4-bedroom split-level home is full of quiet surprises. Ornamented by a raised brick planter wall, the landscaping gently leads you towards the front door. Once inside, you can take the six steps up to the main level foyer, leading to the kitchen straight ahead and open to the living room on the right, long and light-filled with a brick-surround fireplace. Adjacent is the dining room with a tree-top motif chandelier. This main floor was pushed out towards the back in 2008, as well as upwards, providing a major expansion of the kitchen, an additional studio, and a new sun porch off the back of the home. This entire addition, as well as the dining room, has sumptuous hardwood floors. The kitchen boasts extensive maple cabinetry with soapstone counters and a peninsula table, and is equipped with high-end Gaggenau appliances -- steam oven, oven, induction cooktop, and refrigerator. The main sink is a Franke stainless steel farmhouse with apron front, Dornbracht faucet, same makers for prep sink, the dishwasher is Thermador. The wonderful studio has a built-in counter, small sink, with maple cabinets and shelves that match those of the kitchen. These two rooms share an 8-ft pony wall that allows light and air to pass across the adjacent rooms. A generous cupola opening creates additional light, loft, and ambience. Recessed lights, wall sconces, and hanging lights are conveniently placed, while ceiling fans boost air flow, and radiant heat ensures comfort in cool weather. Both rooms offer double doors opening to the enclosed sun porch, which overlooks and opens to the back yard. Returning to the foyer, there is a half-flight of stairs up to the bedroom wing comprised of four bedrooms, three of them sharing one full hall bath, and the fourth is the primary bedroom featuring triple closets and a full ensuite bath. From the kitchen, six stairs go down to the comfortable den, with abundant cabinets, bookshelves, and a picture window that frames the focal point, the lovely backyard. This den is adjacent to a small office, or bedroom, with a closet and double windows looking out over the front yard -- a peaceful spot to work, sleep, or read a book. The storage-friendly basement, a half bath, the long laundry room, and 2-car garage are all accessed from the den. From the laundry room you can step outside onto the stone patio that offers the natural place for grilling and family gatherings. Professionally landscaped for year-round beauty, with low-maintenance free-form borders punctuated here and there by naturalistic stone sculptures and enclosed all the way around by a 6-foot wooden fence, the charming backyard hosts a multitude of squirrels, birds, rabbits, and even koi in the ever-moving waters of a beautifully landscaped pond. In-ground irrigation throughout the entire property makes life easier. This property attests to and celebrates the beauty of nature. This very desirable location is quiet but accessible to the cultural offerings of both Princeton University and the vibrant walking town of Princeton, and the beauty of Lake Carnegie with its walking trails. Four minutes to Princeton Shopping Center and McCaffreys. Easy access to Philadelphia and NYC trains, airports, Route 1 shopping and the endless benefits of Princeton. DO NOT MISS THIS UNIQUE GEM!
