This picturesque colonial is set in the heart of Princeton's western section, on a quiet curve of Westcott Road. With substantial additions by Michael Graves and local architect Ron Berlin, this property represents an unusual marriage of the classic and the dynamic. A generous open family room/kitchen designed by Graves with floor to ceiling windows brings view of the deep, English park-inspired rear garden, right in. Generous public rooms in traditional style flank the front entrance on the first floor and lend themselves to parties large and small. The first floor also features a glass-framed study with more exquisite garden views, a windowed octagon, perfect for sun-accompanied breakfasts and a 2 car garage converted to living space for a variety of pursuits. Three bedrooms on the second floor include a front-to-back master with two marble baths ensuite, one elegantly designed with a vaulted ceiling, double tub and adjacent dressing area. A second bedroom, also Graves-designed, has curved bookcases and an incredible floor to ceiling wall mural by Graves. The adjacent 'jack-and-jill' bath connects to a third light-filled bedroom. The top floor offers two more bedrooms, one with a vaulted ceiling, and a shared full bath, ready for the younger set. A truly unusual offering, now at a great new price, this property is not to be missed!!
