About this home
A tree-lined drive leads to Boxwood Farm, a wonderfully romantic property that feels lifted from the pages of an English novel, even though downtown Princeton is just four miles away. Fenced fields and protected woods surround nearly ten acres dotted with magnificent trees, from maples to magnolia. Lush lawns and seasonal blooms surround the sun-drenched pool, while shady stone terraces invite long summer meals. The single-story manor home overflows with character - arched built-ins, seven fireplaces and countless French doors lining rooms arranged around a central courtyard. The living room is made for gatherings, the dining room for parties and the cozy family room for settling in. The recently renovated kitchen is a standout with Miele appliances, smooth wood-grained cabinetry and an expansive quartz-topped island. A raised brick hearth and deep window seat make the breakfast area a natural spot for unhurried weekend mornings. All five bedrooms have private bathrooms and direct access to the outdoors, with one suite currently used as an office. The primary suite occupies the entire rear wing with a spacious sitting room and customized walk-in closet. Steps away, the carriage house includes a three-room guest apartment and four garage bays, while a charming barn adds yet another layer of possibility for hobbies, projects or country pursuits. Boxwood Farm offers the rare chance to write the next chapter of a one-of-a-kind property with exceptional privacy and boundless potential.

The Environmental Protection 2 district is designed for low intensity uses primarily in the northwest area of the municipality where poor water yields and strata for septic systems dictate large lot development in an area of little or no public infrastructure and severe environmental constraints, including but not limited to, a seasonal high water table, shallow depth to bedrock, and steep slopes along the Stony Brook. Further, the purpose of the EP-2 district is to protect the environmental resources and qualities of this area, maintain the rural character of roads and scenic views, and retain farmland. The EP-2 designation is contrasted with the EP-1 district by being underlain with the Brunswick Shale or Stockton Sandstone geologic formations as depicted in the adopted Master Plan which yield slightly better water supplies. Both the EP-1 and EP-2 districts, though poorly suited for development, are exceptional areas for non-irrigated agriculture. Because of this last factor, clustering of residential units is preferred whether under the provisions of this section or 428.
