Property details
About 1742 Stuart Rd W
With all the serenity and grace of an English manor home, this brick beauty stands on an impressive cul de sac encircled by woodsy land. The natural surroundings stand in stunning contrast to a walled stone terrace and fenced pool area edged with clipped boxwoods. The manicured grounds set the expectation for the level of refinement found inside, beginning with the grand foyer’s sweeping staircase and parquet oak floor. Substantial moldings and show-stopping fireplaces lend gravitas to the formal rooms, yet the plaster ceiling and stained glass windows of the study are so finely detailed they merit up-close appreciation. A hidden staircase leading up to the renovated primary suite allows discreet access to this warm, wood-paneled space worthy of daily use however you see fit. The family room, breakfast bay and kitchen, with recent touches by the experts at Tobias Design and Baxter Construction, openly flow together for an airy and communal atmosphere, where everyone can gather. While the professional range’s Delft tile backsplash and oversized island’s polished stone are in line with the home’s sophisticated style, they are as durable and easy as ever. Another updated and decidedly elegant asset is the full bath around the corner, complete with a hidden washer/dryer for refreshed pool towels in a snap. The recently finished sprawling lower level plays host to casual parties, movie nights, morning workouts and even overnight guests, who will surely enjoy having a kitchenette and bar at their disposal. The main laundry room is located upstairs, convenient to 4 bedroom suites, all with beautifully timeless bathrooms. Additionally, the primary bath is done in pristine basketweave marble with glimmering fixtures. A freshly painted third floor bonus room is equally ideal for an away-from-it-all office or a bunkroom for raucous sleepovers. This fastidiously kept home has sumptuous space for absolutely everything in the most scenic section of Princeton. With adjacent access to the 150 acres of the Woodfield Reservation’s hiking trails yet just a quick drive from several schools, parks and Princeton University, this home is perfectly sited.
