Property Description
Built in 1927 by revered architect Rolf Bauhan as his private residence, and tastefully renovated and expanded by the current homeowners working with architect Jerry Ford, this classic Colonial in Princeton's coveted Institute neighborhood is a masterful mix of old, new and repurposed.In the dining room and kitchen, planks of rich mahogany border terra cotta floor tiles salvaged from a farmhouse in France, and a wall of windows frames a picture-perfect view of an idyllic water fountain. Top appliances (including a 6-burner Wolf gas range with two ovens), partitioned apron sink and soapstone counters modernize the kitchen. Built-in bookcases flank the wood fireplace in the living room, and a wall of antique paneling warms the family room. In the mudroom entry, vintage-looking doors conceal generous closets, and the nearby laundry room delights with built-in cabinetry, soapstone counters and sink. Upstairs, five bedrooms and four baths meet an array of needs, and outside, new slate roof, cedar shake shingles and Marvin windows freshen the exterior.
