This private room opens to the adjacent and comfortable den, with abundant cabinets, bookshelves, and a closet, and the picture window frames the focal point, the lovely backyard. The den is command central as it leads to a powder room, then the laundry room that accesses both the two-car garage, and the backyard, where you step outside onto a stone patio that offers the natural place for grilling and family gatherings. Back inside the den, there's access down to the storage-friendly basement as well as six steps leading up to the kitchen. From there, you can turn the corner into the foyer and proceed up the half-flight of stairs to the bedroom wing comprised of four bedrooms, three of them sharing one full hall bath, and the fourth is the primary bedroom featuring three closets and a full ensuite bath. The main floor offers a large light-filled living room with a brick-surround fireplace and adjacent dining room with tree-top motif chandelier. The upper floor was expanded 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 expansion, 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 a Gaggenau 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, and 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 that open to the enclosed sun porch, overlooking the back yard. Professionally landscaped for year-round beauty, in-ground irrigation, 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 unique and beautifully landscaped pond. This entire property is a unique celebration of nature's beauty. 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. Easy access to Philadelphia and NYC trains, airports, Route 1 shopping and the endless benefits of Princeton. DO NOT MISS THIS UNIQUE GEM! Read Less
