Modern Country Feel with Superior Craftsmanship! Welcome to this completely renovated, move-in ready 1750's contemporary country farmhouse with nearly 3,400 sq. feet of living space situated on roughly 3 acres of rolling hills enjoying complete privacy in historic Griggstown. Architecturally crafted to retain its sense of country charm, this 3 bedroom, 3 full bathroom home with scenic views of the D & R Canal has a long list of modern comforts, including a new addition of a distinctively designed 2-story barn-style double garage with motion detecting external lights and additional loft with skylights PLUS a newly renovated out building for extra storage. In collaboration with local restoration specialists, the Main House features many original details that have been sensitively restored and updated with an open floor plan. The formal library greets you with floor to ceiling built in bookcases and an intricate mahogany parquet floor inspired by Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. The informal entry leads past a newly painted full bath into a spacious custom cherry gourmet kitchen with a large center island, 6-burner commercial gas range and SS European appliances. French doors invite you outside to the wraparound bluestone patio, perfect for entertaining. Original Hand-Carved mantels dating from the Colonial period grace the 2 brick fireplaces in the freshly painted and generously proportioned dining and living rooms. The soaring 15 foot vaulted ceiling with original timber support beams culled from the basement and repurposed overhead, original wrought-iron cooking fireplace (recently converted to gas) and brand new reclaimed heart pine flooring complete the sun-drenched family room. The original staircase leads you upstairs to 3 light-filled bedrooms plus 2 additional full baths, cedar closets, a Miele W/ D, and ample storage. Gas Heat, Multi-zone central air, well and over-sized septic form a solid foundation for this architectural gem offering tranquil country living with easy access to Princeton and Montgomery, all major highways and mass transit.
