A picturesque driveway leads the way to this exceedingly private home set on over 7 wooded acres. French doors, oversized windows, and hardwood floors highlight inspiring spaces, just right for entertaining. The entrance hall is a lovely introduction and gives way to the dramatic great room, where open beams stretch out above a fireplace and a window seat overlooks the pool and koi pond. The dining room has French doors to the patio adjacent to a renovated kitchen with newer stainless steel appliances and soothing gray and marble tones to complement. A bedroom and second room used as a gym have a full bath in between. Upstairs, 3 more bedrooms all have walk-in closets - including the master with private marble bath and deck. Chores will be a dream in the second-floor laundry room. A sunlit lower level has its own entrance, while the finished third floor can be anything homeowners wish from a game room to a theater space. Newer septic, a new roof, and a new generator will be appreciated. Close to downtown Princeton with a Princeton address!
