luxury real estate for sale Princeton, United States

Hopewell Hunt is adored for its generously sized lots spread out along pretty meandering roads, as well as its central location equally close to downtown Princeton, charming Hopewell Borough and lively Pennington. This Carmel model, one of Toll Brothers most requested floor plans, offers an exceptional amount of space, with some rooms, like the versatile conservatory, further enhanced by high ceilings. Buyers will be pleased to see that the interior sports fresh paint in many rooms and brand new carpeting upstairs. Proving that updates are more than just cosmetic, HVAC systems were replaced in 2021 and even the water heater is new. Especially nice for the approaching summer months, a new maintenance-free Trex deck is accessible via multiple Andersen French doors in the family room and kitchen, where a 6-burner Viking cooktop, double ovens and a nearby walk-in pantry are a chef’s delight! When quiet space is required, close the French doors to the first floor study or head upstairs to the flexible sitting room within the main suite. Four walk-in closets and a palatial bathroom make this luxuriously spacious owners’ retreat complete. A second suite and two more bedrooms with a shared bath are just off the open, airy landing. The overarching theme of space continues with a full, walk-out basement poised for finishing and a 3-car garage with an extra alcove ideal for boots, bags and sports gear.

Timber Farm, just minutes from downtown Princeton, comprises 8 rolling acres once covered in Christmas trees. Now it’s the perfectly groomed site of a gambrel-roofed residence with a matching, oversized, carriage-style garage and a paddock with 3-stall shed. A new bluestone patio accessed by four sets of French doors is the perfect spot to take in the setting, as is the delightful screened-in porch off the living room. Expertly chosen finishes add a touch of glamor to the interior, where 11-ft ceilings are the norm on both floors and keystone arches mark the passage between rooms. White oak floors were just refinished and several custom windows were replaced or repaired, brightening up the whole house. The study’s lacquered built-ins, the wet bar’s metallic walls and a pastoral mural that transforms even the mudroom into a charming destination are some of the flourishes that elevate spaces to showhouse-worthy status. The robin’s egg blue kitchen is a highlight with a soapstone sink, professional Wolf range and one of six Rumford-style fireplaces. A new Bosch dishwasher is just one of several new appliances found throughout the house. The gracious main suite boasts a boutique-like dressing room, a versatile sitting room, and a sprawling basketweave tiled bath. New faucets by Newport Brass freshen up the timelessly styled bathrooms, including one serving a princess-worthy bedroom with an airy sunroom to use as you wish. Studio accommodations for a caretaker or au pair are steps beyond the brick breezeway. So many improvements completed in the past two years are sure to make life easier and more comfortable for the next stewards of this thoroughly enchanting property.

Pristine views across Lake Carnegie and direct access to the water make this stunning Riverside home on a full acre positively irresistible. Fortunate residents have been so enamored, in fact, that the property has changed hands only once! The current owners greatly expanded the interior to create bright, functional spaces that maximize views. Choose your favorite spot to watch birds and boats glide over the serene water: the living room's wide window seat or a bank of windows beside the breakfast table. Invite friends to spectate as elite athletes prepare for world-class regattas. There's room for all on the Trex deck, the stone patio below and out on the lawn, gently easing down toward the water. The home's charming, nestled-in façade belies an airy interior with more space than imaginable, including a multi-room lower level with a game room and a fireplace. A gas fireplace provides easy ambiance in the open family room above. Updates to the kitchen over the last several years include quartz countertops, new appliances and new lighting. The nearby mudroom is more than ample and opens to an absolutely spotless garage. The private areas of the first floor can be found down a quiet corridor. A den and an office offer more lovely views and a guest suite is perfectly suited for extended stays. The upper level was carefully planned so that separate pairs of bedrooms each share a roomy bath and the primary suite is a three-room sanctuary. The primary’s skylit sitting room opens to a dressing room for two and a bath with more quartz countertops and a spa tub. There are still more secondary spaces to discover and use as you please. A superb setting, abundant space and an overall warmth that's undeniably tasteful and timeless are a magical combination that won't be found again!

A meandering drive curves invitingly through a private, parklike setting with majestic trees and low-maintenance plantings, making nearly one and a half acres feel even larger. This lovely contemporary home is filled with lush, natural tranquility, creating a dynamic connection between indoors and outdoors. An airy entry has through-views to the backyard with a deck, bluestone patio, and screened gazebo. Convenient to a full bath is a bedroom currently used as a library. Entertain and dine fireside in the 2-story Great Room, alongside a tall wall of windows and glass doors. The bright kitchen offers a 2-sided breakfast bar and a screened coffee porch. Generously scaled are a 1st floor primary suite with a hall of closets, plus 2 more skylit suites upstairs, connected by an open loft - just perfect for a desk and some inspiration. Partially finished basement. In one of Princeton's prettiest neighborhoods, a few minutes from Nassau Street.

The coveted location alone makes this Riverside area home an exceptional find, but there is so much more waiting beyond the sun-dappled front yard and charmingly shingled façade. Follow the brick walkway and open the door to reveal hardwood floors, fresh paint and sunny rooms. The brightest of all is the vaulted, skylit, corner family room, which opens to a deck and freeform pool. One of the benefits of an established neighborhood is that the backyard is rimmed with mature trees for a totally private outdoor experience. A bay window over the kitchen sink also enjoys a view of the pool. While some updating is due, the expanded kitchen’s workspace is generous and a door to the garage is certainly handy after a run to the store. Spanning the depth of the house, the living room is sized for entertaining and has a traditional fireplace as the centerpiece. Upstairs, three corner bedrooms, including the primary suite with private bath, all have hardwood floors. A large upstairs laundry room is an unexpected perk with potential for creative use. The full basement can fulfill any desire for extra casual living space. Customizing the finishes throughout the functional floor plan is well worth the investment on a lakeside street such as this, where luxury living is the norm. Some photos are virtually staged.

This breathtakingly bright Western Section home is proof that warm elegance and clean modernity can happily co-exist. Soft colors, custom finishes and an ingeniously designed new kitchen elevate the perfectly open interior to new heights, while serpentine garden beds and a new saltwater hot tub give the fenced backyard a worlds-away feel, when it is actually a mere half-mile from downtown and campus. The entire lot is impeccably landscaped and occupies a quiet corner of a private one-way lane. Homeowners enter through the spotlessly finished garage into an expanded stone floor mudroom, where back stairs lead up to a big bonus room that was finished by Baxter Construction for the sellers. The main living spaces are bathed in so much sunshine that automated exterior blinds join custom draperies by Amy Karyn to create the perfect level of filtered light. Custom stone subtly accents both gas and wood-burning fireplaces and beautiful artwork rises at the push of a button to reveal a high-tech entertainment system. But the streamlined kitchen by Tobias Design and Baxter stands out as the most impressive of all the recent improvements. A LaCornue range is the only visible appliance and it is a work of art! Custom-fitted cabinetry provides a place for everything, letting gorgeous marble countertops shine. The experts at Baxter also renovated 2 bathrooms, including one serving a first-floor guest room, which doubles as the powder room and the palatial primary bath with a spa tub and separate walk-in closets nearby. While a huge room in the basement is already finished, a secondary space is ideal as a future gym. In the past few years, the current owners even took on less glamorous projects, like replacing HVAC systems and adding a whole-house generator, to ensure maximum comfort for years and years to come! Amazingly enough, all of this exists within 6/10 of a mile from Nassau Street with Princeton University just beyond.

Materials feel fresh and stylish, yet you’ll never tire of the serene, neutral shades or the natural beauty of genuine wide-plank white oak floors, which span all three levels. Oversized matte black Andersen 400 Series windows, remarkably high ceilings and wide staircases further the airy atmosphere. A plastered accent wall subtly highlights the living area’s linear gas fireplace and floating hearth. While the kitchen has everything needed for a chef-level experience, like full-size Sub-Zeros and a 48” Wolf cooktop beneath a powerful hood, everything is seamlessly built-in and beautifully paneled. In fact, a back kitchen/pantry with a second dishwasher and sink lets you enjoy a meal surrounded by clean quartz countertops, rather than pots and pans. A wet bar connecting the dining room also keeps drinks chilled and barware ready, yet out of the way. All five bedrooms, including one tucked away on the main level, have custom organized closets and private baths. Curbless showers, heated floors and extra-thick countertops are some of the features that elevate each spotless bathroom.

Quieter private spaces include a first floor study that looks out onto the stone terrace and a library-like office with a covered balcony basking in blooming tree views. The latter is part of the main bedroom suite loaded with enveloping warmth from hand-hewn beams, artisan and antique doors and grasscloth walls. The boutique-style closet received equal attention to detail. Pretty marble bathrooms serve 3 more bedrooms, one with its own dressing area. Even utilitarian spaces are not to be dismissed, like the mudroom with custom-finished doors or a powder room with sculpturesque sink. Last, but far from least, is the party-perfect, 3-bay, barn-style garage with a half bath and stylish gym/office that spills out to the yard, your own bucolic Eden with an arbored path leading to a sweet fenced garden.

An established neighborhood known for its manicured lots, quiet streets and easy access to downtown Princeton and charming Hopewell Borough was a worthy location for a major home renovation with plenty of high-end perks. There is a reason this special home has had only two owners since being built over 50 years ago. While the exterior has a seamlessly cohesive appearance, the home was significantly expanded to include an inviting family room, dedicated home office and hangout space ideal for the ever-changing pastimes of the younger generation. Traditional features, such as hardwood floors and crown molding, were already in place and guided the aesthetic of new spaces and big-ticket upgrades, like pretty Pella windows. The kitchen, with island seating and chef-worthy appliances by Wolf and Sub-Zero, openly looks into a sitting room fitted with built-ins. A brick fireplace, one of three, invites after-dinner lingering in the dining room. Every spotless bathroom is classically styled for enduring appeal, including a powder room near the indispensable mud entry. Located on the first floor, the roomy main suite boasts custom walk-in closets and an exceptionally airy bathroom, where one can take in views of the sprawling, deer-fenced yard from a free-standing tub. On starry nights, opt for a soak in the outdoor spa and enjoy time on the expanded patio or the screened-in porch. Upstairs, a second suite joins two more comfortable bedrooms sharing a hall bath as well as a den fit for work or leisure with a generously proportioned home office around the corner. There is access to the great room from the second floor, but stairs near a side entry also lead up to the bright and lofty space lined with handy storage benches. Don’t miss the finished basement, which houses a second laundry room, an exercise room and a recreation area, useful for a variety of activities. Certainly no afterthought, the oversized garage enhances the property’s curb appeal and has abundant storage in a walk-up loft. Meticulously maintained HVAC systems, a newer water heater and a generator ensure uninterrupted comfort.
