luxury properties for sale Belle Mead, United States (page 2)

Two of the area’s most seasoned design forces, architect Glen Fries and decorator Judy King, teamed up to enhance an historic property’s best attributes and amend the floorplan to reach the height of its potential for elegant modern living and high-style entertaining. The results are spectacular and full of architectural elements and reimagined fixtures you will never see twice. The largest spaces are also the most frequently used: the chef-ready kitchen with appliances posing as furniture, a concrete island that only gets better with age and a great room expansion featuring a monumental stone fireplace, a wet bar and home theater. 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. At the end of the country-quaint stone driveway, it’s less than 3 miles and a single turn to the center of Princeton with several of the area’s finest schools immediately nearby.

Laidback modern luxury is the simplest way to capture the essence of this newly built Littlebrook area residence. Angelone Homes, a local name synonymous with high-end design and construction, just completed the project in December 2022 and it offers a wealth of state-of-the-art extras: smart Lutron lighting, electric vehicle charging and Nest thermostats, to name a few.

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.

Integrating heritage and modern design, this circa 1800 historic farmhouse was completely reinvented with a fabulous addition while still preserving the best of its old-world patina. The hub of the home is the open-plan kitchen and spacious family room in the new part of the house. A charming glass hall opens to a blue stone patio as does the original dining room with a walk-in fireplace. The new main suite supplements two other bedrooms with a soothing ensuite and a dressing area with multiple closets. Second-floor laundry is off a wide hall. A wine cellar is in the basement. Added plus is a separate barn with over-sized 6-car garage which includes high ceilings, heat, hydraulic lift, and drainage for indoor washing. This barn also includes two nice income-producing apartments with stunning outdoor spaces and a caretaker's efficiency which would also make a nice office. The second barn is a large, historic barn with radiant floor heat and electric. New 3 BD septic has been installed. The property borders the Amwell Valley Trail Association.

The award-winning restoration of Westland, once the beloved home of President Grover Cleveland, brought plaster-detailed ceilings, carved mantels and oversized windows back to a level of magnificence that would undoubtedly please the Jersey-born Commander in Chief. Yet this gloriously bright home is far from suspended in time. The modern sensibilities of the current owners prove that fresh, fun and functional can successfully go hand-in-hand with stately ornamentation. The 1.57-acre grounds also support a leisurely lifestyle with a renovated pool, covered porch and 3-car garage to one side. While a profusion of hydrangea blooms bring lively color to the whole property, the formal garden extending from a broad bluestone patio is an especially captivating spot for summertime soirees. Inside, ceilings rise well over 12-feet, but feel even loftier above clean white walls washed in sunlight. Most rooms are large and versatile, yet there are spots to steal away for conversation or a cocktail. Some may choose to use the library off the family room as a bar or create a breakfast nook in the sunroom lined with gracefully arched windows. While the kitchen feels simply timeless with brilliant white cabinetry and natural marble, a custom steel hood over an enormous Viking range shows it can stand up to the demands of a serious chef. A nearby mud entry with cubbies and a half-bath keeps wet feet and backpacks in check. Accessible by two staircases, the second level is enchanting in its own right with five bedrooms boasting features like built-ins and fireplaces. The primary suite also offers walk-in closets, one fit for a queen with a stunning chandelier. Work, play, exercise and host extra holiday guests on the airy top floor, complete with its own bathroom, a walk-in cedar closet and some of the prettiest windows in the whole house. There are so many reasons to fall head over heels for history-rich Westland, but perhaps the best part is its amazing proximity to Princeton destinations. The library, Palmer Square, The Arts Council, the YMCA and, of course, campus are a pleasant stroll from the gracious front porch.
