Comfortable and inviting, this five-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is filled with light, boasts two fireplaces, and showcases a large family room with high angled ceiling and a wall of built-in bookcases.Entering through the emerald green front door, a pair of French doors to the right leads into a large open space that serves as a combined living and dining area with a wood-burning fireplace. To the left of the entry, a doorway leads to the sleeping wing, where three bedrooms share a hall bath, and the master suite sports a walk-in closet, private bathroom, and a pair of French doors leading to the deck and built-in swimming pool. Imagine starting off the warm day with a private swim!Straight back from the entrance is the family room, where a high, angled, sky-lit ceiling floods the room with natural light. One wall is accented with near floor-to-ceiling bookcases, and another with the home s second fireplace. This room opens to the sunny breakfast nook with a palladium window topping the picture window, and the kitchen, where the refrigerator and stove vent are paneled to match the cabinetry. Awaiting serious cooks is the six-burner Viking gas stove with two full-size ovens and a center griddle.Gleaming wood floors and painted crown moldings accent the soothing wall colors nearly throughout, with a bright splash of wall color in the kitchen.The home s fifth bedroom is in a separate wing with a private entrance from the hallway, and a door to the powder room. Its location makes it perfect for anyone requiring a bit of extra privacy, such as college students, au pairs or in-laws. The laundry/mudroom, tucked next to kitchen, exits to the attached two-car garage.The backyard, nicely sized, fully fenced and rimmed with deciduous and evergreen trees, features a large deck with ramp access, a pool, and a garden shed. Conveniently located near Hamilton train station and major commuter routes like 95, 31 and 29, this home offers easy access to Princeton (just eight miles away!), Trenton, New York and Philadelphia, plus the many parks and open preserves that dot Hopewell Township. The home is also within strolling distance of the adorable Pennington downtown, which is frequently named one of New Jersey s quaintest for its boutiques, restaurants and overall happy vibe.
