Property details
About 270 Carriage Way
The polished sophistication of this updated Princeton home is evident upon entry, but the overall size and level of detail come as a stunning surprise as your tour unfolds. Louvered wood shutters and subtly hand-painted walls are custom finishes found in several places, starting with the formal rooms. Both the library and the family room, where a chic new wet bar coordinates with an updated gas fireplace, flow out to a seasonal sunroom. The kitchen, with a big center island that seats at least seven, boasts only the best brands: Miele, Viking and Sub-Zero to name a few. Beyond the vaulted breakfast room, a breathtaking great room addition wows with a coffered cathedral ceiling and beautiful windows fitted with seamlessly integrated shades. Step out to two separate patios to enjoy the leafy privacy of the quiet enclave, which connects to the adjoining neighborhood via footpath. There are dedicated areas for both work and play - a perfectly styled home office and a 2-zone finished basement, complete with its own powder room and a wealth of storage. Take the sweeping staircase up to the professionally decorated primary suite. Through double doors, you’ll find space for relaxing, a custom walk-in closet and a spacious bathroom with a slipper tub beneath a peaked, skylit ceiling. Two more baths sporting natural travertine and pebble tile serve the other three pleasant bedrooms. Truly an exceptional move-in-ready home! Two fireplaces and chimneys are believed to be in working order but are "conveyed as is".
