Enjoy the best of every season in this custom home. A sigh-worthy offering with charming and chic finishes throughout, it is owned and adorned by a designer and it shows! Originally built by Thomas Blackwell in 1801, this home remained in the Blackwell family until 1928 and retains many historic elements. Step in through Dutch doors to the re-designed mudroom with a wall of customized cabinetry and a laundry nook with a new walnut countertop. The family room with new telescoping doors to the patio segues nicely with the kitchen, which features many recent improvements including the backsplash and quartz counters. Aligning the foyer, a beautiful formal dining room with a wall of new windows, a renovated home office that opens to the outdoors, and a study provide flexibility for usage based on your needs. Up a hand-painted staircase, the main suite has a new private bath. Two more bedrooms, one a two-room suite separated by a barn-style slider, share an updated hall bathroom. A fourth bedroom set apart from the others on the third floor has its own bathroom and a bonus/homework/media space that will be the envy of friends. The flourishing grounds of this home are a resort-style paradise including a new pool, carriage house with a murphy bed and full bath, a covered gazebo, and an expansive bluestone terrace all within minutes to downtown Princeton!
