About this home

Designed by Princeton architect William Walker, this classic contemporary sits beautifully on a hill surrounded by trees in Princeton s western section. The design reflects a modern sense of spaciousness, every room in visual contact with exterior gardens. The long central living and dining spaces, with fireplace, offer broad views over the front and rear gardens onto a lovely deck. The south wing has two bedrooms, a den, a full and half bath. The north wing is a two-level structure consisting of a master bedroom with balcony, a fourth bedroom, a full bath and a large family room with a window wall overlooking a patio and rock garden. The family room has a corner fireplace, half bath, kitchenette and separate entry. This room is ideal for a studio or home office. The lot is large and private with mature trees, including hollies and Japanese dogwoods. Owned by architects, the house is available with exciting sketches for expansion
