About This Home

Available Sep 11

Tucked away on a cul de sac within Princeton’s admired Ettl Farm community, this Madison model dazzles with brand new updates and a prime lot with sweeping open views. A fenced patio and gazebo beneath a maintenance-free composite deck are perfectly positioned to capture southern sunlight. At the heart of the interior, the stunning, new kitchen steals the show with Bosch appliances, waterfall-edge quartz, brilliant white shaker cabinetry and extra light pouring in from the adjoining sunroom. It’s a true showpiece designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Soaring ceilings and skylights elevate the family room, while chic, modern lighting brings fresh style to the living and dining rooms. A beautifully outfitted library with abundant built-ins and a sunny bay presents the perfect work-from-home refuge. New carpeting extends throughout all four bedrooms, including two suites and two sharing a crisp white bath. The primary suite is luxuriously sized, complete with a sitting room, a three-sided fireplace, dual walk-in closets and an expansive dressing room. The brand new spa bath gleams with a sculptural slipper tub, illuminated mirrors and oversized tile that together deliver a sleek, hotel feel. The finished basement offers exceptional versatility with a wet bar, mirrored gym, sauna, full bath and two bonus rooms ideal for overflow guests, hobbies or play. A 3-car garage with Tesla charger, a 2020 roof with solar panels and fully updated HVAC systems further modernize this turn-key property so close to top schools - Johnson Park Elementary, Stuart Country Day, The Hun School and more. Some photos are virtually staged.
