About the Listing CHSIR01 - 3170175
A rarity in Princeton and a first time on the market... minimalist designed, 4-bedrooms with 5 full baths and set within Princeton’s coveted Western Section. This totally custom residence designed by HMR Architects, features a richly-textured, cypress-clad façade — purposefully set-back and restrained for privacy. Step through a pivoting 8’ metal door and the experience transforms. Magnificent expanses of glass and wide plank, white oak wood flooring span three levels. Every room beckons with natural light and architectural details... subtle, layered, embracing. A central stair tower uniting the two rectangular wings, is a sculptural element itself; all while multiple decks and a walkout patio continue the home’s indoor-outdoor seamless flow; dramatically showcasing the deep, wooded lot and professionally landscaped grounds. The loft-style great room is a true showpiece, with a soaring 25-foot ceiling, an artfully designed, hand-crafted metal fireplace and a Japanese-style Shou Sugi Ban accent wall. And the kitchen… are you dreaming of a dream kitchen? The open format with a spacious island is thoughtfully planned for smooth functionality and culinary precision; featuring Gaggenau, Thermador and Sub-Zero appliances. This residence easily adapts to evolving needs of today’s lifestyle with flexible rooms, and secluded offices. Perfect for optimal privacy and functionally. A full bath with a zero-entry shower, a spa-soothing color palette and a rain shower, sits beside two adjoining rooms, presenting the often-desired option of an accessible main-level suite. The upper primary suite includes a versatile loft with gliding doors and stunning treetop views. Smart features enhance daily living, including commercial-grade Wi-Fi, 6-zone HVAC and an 8-zone Sonos sound system, as well as an automatic dog door and invisible fence. Additional amenities include a glass enclosed 216-bottle conditioned wine cellar, a 3-person sauna and a full workout gym including a TRX system, which opens to a covered patio, complete with an outdoor shower. Beyond a bocce court and fenced raised bed vegetable garden, a bridge leads to a secluded fire pit, encircled by a ring of mature trees. Even the fully finished garage is forward-thinking pre-wired for two EV chargers and floor-to-ceiling storage. With an impeccably executed mid-century modern sensibility, this low-maintenance home blends truly striking design with effortless livability just a mile from the center of town...and the centerpiece of inspired living.
