Custom designed by its original owners with architectural interest and infinite attention to detail, this expansive and elegant fieldstone front home is a mere stroll to the heart of Pennington and distinguished by the high quality of construction and premium finishes that are hallmarks of a Zaveta-built house in Woodmere Estates. Not one inch of this residence, inside and out, lacks a sense of the thought, care and focus that went into making it such a gracious property. Welcome is immediately evident at the unique arched front door of burnished wood. Step into a soaring Foyer that centers on its butterfly staircase and flows through in a classic but open plan, unified by gleaming hardwood floors and inviting sightlines that continue through extensive windows and French doors to frame the landscape beyond. Handsome fireplaces are focal points in the generously proportioned Living Room with coffered ceiling and in the formal Dining Room, both entered through matching arches with colonial keystone millwork. In the Great Room, the fireplace is set in dramatic fieldstone that echoes the exterior, flanked by built-ins and lending warmth to the kitchen and its casual eating areas, all great for informal entertainment. Appointed with premium cabinetry and appliances including an Aga stove, the kitchen has it all for the chef, along with expansive granite counters and a two-level island. A spacious butler's pantry provides bar service, wine storage and a second Miehle dishwasher. The Great Room and Kitchen both look out to the tiered bluestone terrace, accented by three magnificent magnolia grandiflora trees and a fountain. From there past a hot tub, gently winding paths lead through trees to a summerhouse. An office/library provides a wall of bookshelves, quiet and those garden views too. Upstairs the grand Master Bedroom with sitting room features a vaulted ceiling, oversized closet with organizers and an ultra-glamorous bath, all conveniently near the second stairway. There are 2 Princess suites, plus a 'guest' wing with 2 bedrooms and bath, perfect for family or visitors. Every activity has its own space in the beautifully finished basement, be it exercise, media, games or just relaxing. Top-rated Hopewell Valley Regional Schools, a hop, skip and jump to Toll Gate Grammar, minutes to private schools in Princeton and Lawrenceville, I-95 and trains.
