Property Description
This stately fieldstone mansion built in the early 1900’s features the same collegiate style that makes nearby Princeton University buildings instantly recognizable. The acre-plus property, which anchors the eastern end of Hodge Road, just steps from popular destinations, like the library, Arts Council, Palmer Square and YMCA, is at its most majestic in springtime, when cherry trees veil the exterior in a cloud of pale pink blooms. The private grounds also include a 3-car garage, guest parking, a stone patio and a covered porch, added by architect Leslie Dowling in 2018. Dowling also increased the modern functionality of the interior by reworking the kitchen, pantry and mudroom. A waterfall-edge Quartz island, built-in banquette seating and a Miele espresso station are just some of the highlights. The formal areas of the house are a spectacular display of original features: leaded glass windows, carved mantels, oak floors and tall paneling - all the distinguished hallmarks of Tudor style. The living room’s plaster-detailed ceiling is especially remarkable and the hallway staircase is a regal introduction to the upper level’s private sanctuaries. Most bedrooms have decorative fireplaces, walk-in closets and renovated ensuite baths. There is also a sunny sitting room with pocket doors and, atop the back staircase, a large game room with a study area, kitchenette and additional stone-tiled bathroom. Skylights drench the top floor hallway in sunshine. Two more bedrooms, for a total of 7, join a quiet office and handy storage rooms. Likely constructed by the same skilled masons employed by the university, this recently repointed stone house was built to impress and endure for generations to come!
