Property Description
Set in the midst of Princeton's historic Mercer Hill, loved as much for its rich history and picture postcard charm as it is for its stroll-to-town location, this exquisite period home has been transformed by a stylish, windows-to-foundation renovation. Preserved 1870's details provide a beautiful backdrop for modern, searched-for highlights that include a spectacular gourmet kitchen, finished basement, and smart home features. Hardwood floors and an open flow connect a fireside living room to a holiday-sized dining room and beyond, a snug library. Designed with a chic European sensibility and every possible amenity, the chef's kitchen is an absolute showstopper with fittings from London, Italian geometric tile, and professional grade appliances that include a Wolf 6 burner with an indoor grill, a 848" Sub Zero fridge, and a 144 bottle wine fridge/humidor. Upstairs, 2 bedrooms and 2 suites feature lit, Elfa-organized closets; 3 full baths have been renovated beautifully. Unique to a period home like this are the "extra spaces": a top floor bonus room/den, a finished basement with ample storage, and a backyard oasis with a pair of bluestone patios, a year-round studio/office, and 3-car parking that includes a garage. Too many smart features to mention include Nest thermostats and gigabit wired network and internet. Along with new plumbing, electric, and foundation: this is effectively a new house!
