An award-winning design by renowned Brooklyn-based firm, Garrison Architects, is as strikingly modern as it is blissfully livable. The cantilevered wood and steel house is set on a clearing amid 9+ acres with a freshly paved driveway weaving through towering trees, all encircled by a walking trail. The gated setting is as private as can be, yet affords easy access to the golf course of neighboring Jasna Polana. Vast stretches of glass highlight the serene surroundings and welcome unlimited sunlight inside. Airy ceilings, slate floors and blonde wood built-ins further the modern natural aesthetic, while smooth Venetian plaster provides an occasional backdrop of soft color. Fireplaces bring an element of warmth to the living room, the family room and an office overlooking a small pond and fenced garden. The open kitchen has plenty of space for casual meals, computer work and storage, including a huge walk-in pantry. Step right out to the expansive stone terrace to take in the fresh air or entertain under the stars. All bedrooms have mesmerizing views, and the primary suite also offers a fireplace, a fully tiled bath with floating vanity and two customized closets off a light-infused corridor lined with frosted glass panels. A beautifully updated marble bath serves a second suite at the opposite end of the house and a hall bath has double sinks set beneath a cool aqua countertop. Brand new carpeting covers the walk-out lower level, bringing added warmth and comfort to a media room and a bonus room beside yet another full bath. Three garage bays are clean and roomy. This one-of-a-kind modern retreat is a mere 3-mile drive from the center of Princeton.
