About this home

"Twin Elms" is a stately residence of outstanding beauty and charm on almost 30 acres in the heart of Princeton Township. The exterior, crafted of selected Pennsylvania stone and frame, built in the early 1930's, was designed to reproduce an authentic Revolutionary War period home. Remarkable features, curated over a decade, are the interior architectural details, wide pumpkin pine floors, antique, hand-blown windows and hardware, 14 classic fireplaces and exceptional wood paneling. The property is surrounded by woodlands, post and rail fences, stone walls, a pond with weeping willows, gracious rolling lawns, flowering shrubs, perennial flower beds, specimen trees and a lovely enclosed rose garden leading to a tiled, heated pool. It offers an idyllic setting for gracious living and memorable entertaining. A mere ten minutes from Princeton, the property has 3 apartments, a tennis court, and a charming three-bedroom cottage.
