200 HUN ROAD

PRINCETON, NJ 08540

In a neighborhood well known for spectacular homes along pretty winding roads, this shingled beauty's irresistible charm stands apart. The freshly painted exterior edged with a white picket fence looks like a Nantucket seaside cottage that’s been expanded and enhanced under an expert eye. The house was originally built to mimic a period colonial and every tasteful detail is spot on, from the working shutters to the antique wood floors. A later addition added airy new spaces to complement existing cozy rooms, resulting in a captivating interior like no other. A study lined with built-ins and a sunny living room both have fireplaces, but the substantial gas fireplace in the dining room steals the spotlight and makes holiday meals unforgettable. Step into the kitchen, where the whitewashed wood ceiling soars over a massive island, artfully distressed and topped with honed granite. Everything from the walk-in pantry to the artisan tile over the 6-burner Viking range was carefully considered. Utilitarian spaces are just as well-designed with custom cubbies lining the mud entry and a vintage enamel sink in the laundry room. Two powder rooms are a practical perk. Be sure to appreciate the one-of-a-kind fixtures in the one serving the cathedral family room, where yet another gas fireplace is centered between window seats. More hangout space exists downstairs, along with storage and hobby areas. The sunny main suite offers an organized walk-in closet across from a roomy white bath, while across the hall, two bedrooms share a cleverly configured, skylit bath with a hidden laundry chute. The third floor offers extra privacy for another light-filled bedroom suite, plus untapped attic space. The driveway offers plenty of shady parking and, behind carriage-style garage doors, EV charging is ready and waiting. Last but not least, the irrigated backyard with bluestone patio is a private paradise with a darling playhouse tucked into the corner. Adjacent to the Hun School, and only 1.8 miles from Nassau Street and Princeton University, the location is one of Princeton’s favorites.
