    What's special

    High ceilingsGranite countersLarge decorative fireplaceWalk-in closetMature treesClassic style homeWhite cabinetry
    Situated on nearly 4.5 acres and backing onto Carson Woods, this thoughtfully renovated and updated, this classic style home has been stylishly updated, yet allows many of the original features sparkle throughout the home. Arriving at the home, a sense of calm and serenity is immediate as you soak up the location, lush greenery, mature trees and privacy, a place to relax and recharge. Upon entering the property, the feeling continues. The living room, with its paneled walls and built in book cases, hints to perhaps a storied past. The fireplace adds to the glamour of the space and the high ceilings add drama. Leading from the living room we enter the heart of the home with the kitchen/ family room combo. The Large decorative fireplace is truly the center piece of this space. The kitchen is completely new with white cabinetry and granite counters. The island has a waterfall style counter in quartzite. All appliances are the Italian brand Bertazzoni, known for its style and quality. Beyond the family room is the mudroom and utility room – including a half bath and then in its own separate wing a bedroom with private bath. The bedroom has a walk-in closet and yet another fire place for a hint of romance. The bathroom has a soaking tub as well as a separate shower stall and vanity. The large primary bedroom is a good size and even has a spot for a sitting area. The large ensuite bath has the second soaking tub in the home, an oversized shower and double vanity. The second bedroom has the original Parkay flooring from the home and has been refinished. There is a walk-in closet here too. The hall bath which services this bedroom has a shower and vanity. Just a few steps away from the main house is the one bedroom cottage/ guest house which has one bedroom and is fully self-contained and tastefully updated with 2 fireplaces, one being decorative. There is a 2 car detached garage too! Enjoy this oasis just minutes from downtown Princeton and everything it has to offer!
