A captivating Princeton carriage house finished in cedar shakes is set on 2.5 manicured acres. Located about a mile from town, the current owner has thoughtfully updated the layout with modern amenities and gracious appointments. Classic design elements such as the terra cotta-floored foyer, arched doorways, window walls, two fireplaces and exposed brickwork capture the home’s welcoming spirit. Among the main spaces are an expansive chef-caliber center island kitchen which steps down to a coffered ceiling family room. Adjacent to the family room is a heated greenhouse, the site of many magical dinner parties. The handsome fireside living room opens to the covered porch, while a privately-situated library features custom built-ins and French doors to a quiet deck. Continuing the open flow is an inviting den fitted with a brick wall fireplace and richly-toned wood paneling. A beautifully detailed primary suite connecting to a generously-sized bath is a sublime retreat. Once part of a larger estate, this C 1910 residence is a rare find. Sheltered and private, its ideal location is near Princeton’s shops, restaurants, cultural venues and extraordinary educational institutions.n This property is also known as 121 Rosedale Rd.
