Only nineteen years old, this meticulously maintained, one-of-a-kind Arts and Craft style home with five bedrooms and five full and one half baths is secluded from the main road and located in the heart of Princeton's Western section. Pride of ownership is offered here from original owners/master gardeners. Enjoy peaceful relaxation surrounded by chemical-free rolling lawn, numerous gardens, flowering shrubs, and majestic trees, all cared for organically without traditional pesticides. Countless architectural details and top-quality amenities throughout add value and eye-pleasing design. Upon entering, feel the immediate warm and harmonious ambiance with gleaming hardwood floors, many custom built-ins, glass door knobs, decorative moldings, wainscoting, and arched doorways. Everything a cook could want in a kitchen is found here, beginning with beautiful mahogany cabinetry, granite counters, expansive center island, and high-tech/high functioning appliances. Charming living room with fireplace and gracious formal dining room boast multiple French doors opening to a trellised veranda with beautiful views of the ornamental grounds and pathways. Centrally located family room and library/music room both feature fireplaces. Upstairs Master bedroom suite, situated for privacy, is a soothing oasis of special comforts at the day's end. A blissfully serene standalone tub, his/hers sinks, water closet, separate shower, completely fitted custom closet, cozy sitting area, and gas fireplace will melt away a busy day's stress. Four other ample-sized bedrooms with three full baths await restful nights. Office/studio/loft area is perfect for many uses, including as an au-pair suite, and the back stairs descend to a laundry/mud room with full bath for modern-day convenience. Finished basement with outside access is loaded with extras and is a must-see. Additional features include 3 car garage, 3 zone HVAC, central vac, six-panel wood doors, floored attic space, whole house gas generator (2013), cedar roof (2013), four-sided brick exterior, outdoor sprinkler system, and Northeast-facing position.
