Set back on nearly two acres, and just down the road from a Hopewell treasure, St. Michael"s Farm Preserve, this deceptively spacious home is the epitome of elegance and easy living. Its meticulously maintained parklike setting is a peaceful oasis from the hustle and bustle, and its location offers quick access to Princeton and Pennington. From the maintenance-free front porch deep enough for rockers and porch swing, enter through a leaded glass door into a two-story sunlit foyer; the dining room is to the right and the living room with built-in floor-to-ceiling bookcases and cabinetry is to the left. At the center of the house, a family room leads out to the first of three connecting stone patios (two topped with elegant wooden pergolas), offering flexible space for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining. In the family room, a natural stone wood-burning fireplace is a warm focal point here and in the adjacent eat-in kitchen with abundant granite counter space. At the back, a mudroom entry with laundry room, half bath, pantry, and access to the three-bay garage complete the first level. Reach the upstairs by turned staircase, and from the landing enjoy the peaceful view of the woodland across the way. Three nicely sized bedrooms, each with custom California closets and gorgeous glimpses of the property, share a hall bath. The master suite, tucked away at the rear of the home, offers a bit of privacy and the bonus of a personal balcony overlooking the backyard ? the perfect place to begin and end the day. Two custom California closets and a sitting room adjoin the sleeping area. Nearby, the skylit en suite bathroom in soothing shades of gray and white showcase understated luxury: a glass shower with marble bench and river stone floor. On the home"s lowest level, two spacious finished rooms with wood laminate floors offer the perfect space for crafting, games, home office or media room. The lower level also offers a full bath with custom walk-in, and a large storage area with access to the garage. Thoughtfully accented throughout with hardwood floors, painted wainscot, crown molding and other luxe touches, and beautifully lit with natural light, this move-in-ready house needs only you to become a home.
