84 Allison Rd, Princeton, NJ 08540

Nearly an acre of specimen trees and rare azaleas softly embrace this distinguished mid-century modern home in Princeton's Western Section. The property, originally drawn in crisp lines by noted Princeton architect Matthew C. Fleming, has been thoughtfully expanded by Pierre Coutin. Wall-wide windows capitalize on the private, emerald landscape. Grand and welcoming formal rooms include an expansive, fireside living room with custom walnut cabinetry and atrium doors to a stone patio. Slide open pocket doors to a generous library and feel keenly the influence of former homeowner Frederick Baldwin Adams, relative of Franklin D. Roosevelt and a director of the Pierpont Morgan Library. An efficient kitchen and a family room with full bath (a potential in-law suite, ) handle casual comforts. A Baccarat crystal chandelier graces the staircase to 3 baths and 5 view-filled bedrooms, nearly all with built-ins, and one with a darling window seat for reading amongst the trees. A partially finished basement holds spaces for pool, photography, and wine. Less than a mile from the offerings of Nassau Street!
