Property Description
Known as Windwhistle Farm... On Princeton's coveted ridge, yet only 2.8 miles from Nassau Street, the timeless setting of this stunningly renovated and expanded antique Colonial feels perfectly above the fray. Bountiful landscaping frames a classic clapboard facade, enticing those seeking charm, comfort and space. An airy new foyer bridges the original house and the newer section, which includes a sunken living room with fireplace and terrace. The dining room also has a fireplace and built-ins beneath the quintessential beamed ceiling. The family room with third fireplace flows into the custom kitchen, where granite and travertine counter tops are naturally refined. The walk out, finished basement made bright by French doors is ideal for billiards, exercise or media. Upstairs, the added master suite has a soothing tiled bath with steam shower and sunny walk-in closet. A study nook joins 2 bedrooms, a full suite, the laundry and a tiled bath in what was the original wing. The garage holds a finished studio with endless possibilities. There's a whole house generator for back up as well. How rare to find 5 acres as scenic as this bordering 44 acres of preserved land (with walking trails) and even more accessible nearby. All just a 5 minute drive to the center of downtown Princeton, Princeton University and even closer to some of the area's most coveted schools, both public and private. Come see!
