No detail was overlooked and no luxury was denied at this impeccably kept home perched on 2 acres in one of Princeton’s most impressive neighborhoods. Wide stone steps and oversized gas lanterns create a welcoming entry, but it’s the resort-style backyard that makes everyone want to stay all day. Like a forest spring amid towering trees, water cascades into a free-form pool with built-in spa. Sliding into the saltwater is the most refreshing way to cool off after a spirited game on the turf sport court or just manning the grill on the walled stone patio. Thanks to a newly renovated lower level, complete with a full bar and a sophisticated open theater, the good times continue well after summer ends. High ceilings are a common feature throughout all levels and incredible moldings draw the eye up for full appreciation, especially in the dining room. Wide-open and well-equipped, the kitchen can handle multiple cooks and any menu with ease. Side-by-side Sub-Zeros, double ovens, dishwasher drawers and a Miele coffee station are just a few of the chef-approved features. Perhaps the most indispensable spot in the whole house is the perfectly planned mudroom with a dedicated place for everything and a second half bath. Every bedroom, all six of them, has an organized closet and a private bathroom. While the primary suite is expected to be a notch above, this one goes to all new heights! The sitting room features one of the home’s three gas fireplaces, the huge bathroom boasts radiant heat and a steam shower, and the larger of two walk-in closets has spiraling stairs to a second level. A generator and an irrigation system are some of the unseen extras that make life easier at this high-quality home.
