A long veranda overlooks a pond and an allee of flowering trees lining the drive up to this rambling stone and frame house set back along one of the area’s prettiest winding roads. The accompanying seven Lawrence Twp acres, which include a pool and cabana, have the feel of a country getaway, yet Princeton’s town center is just minutes away. While some liken the exterior to an 18th century farmhouse, the interior’s big, bright formal rooms are in keeping with the graciousness of its 1940’s origins. The dining room has a bay and art niches. The living room offers a fireplace, built-in bookshelves and four French doors opening to al fresco spaces. A high arched window in the renovated kitchen draws attention to the airiness of its vaulted ceiling. Below, a 48” Viking range stands across from an expansive island. A window seat and a sitting area with built-in desk and media center offer comfortable spots to keep company with the cook. Downstairs, a pegged wood floor gives way to terra cotta tiling in the family room served by a wet bar. Across the hall is a bedroom. A gym with sauna and a study paneled in pickled wood connect to the private wing above, with a vaulted ceiling and dual vanities suite. A second bedroom suite includes a spa tub with blue tiles. A hall bath done in black and white serves a study and additional bedroom. A huge suite on the third floor offers the utmost in privacy.
