An authentic Princeton farmhouse directly across from Carnegie Lake has been elevated and enlarged to meet every modern need, including working from home and hosting guests in ultimate comfort——all while encouraging a healthy indoor/outdoor lifestyle. Multiple gardens and stone patios surround the crisply painted clapboard exterior lined with French doors and nearly all new wood windows. A variety of native perennials attract pollinators, an organic kitchen garden inspires culinary creativity and a sprawling lawn beyond stacked stone walls is big enough for any sport or perhaps a future pool. The interior masterfully combines character, comfort and timeless style after a full renovation and major additions by architect Cathy Knight, well-known for her finesse with historic homes. Original mantels still decorate the dining room and two sitting rooms, where formal occasions and relaxed gatherings flow outdoors with ease. A wet bar bridges the family room, capped with a lofty ceiling, and the kitchen, designed for use by professional restaurateurs with a suite of Thermador appliances. A vintage cast iron sink and built-in hutch are practical reminders of the home’s beginnings——yet just around the corner, a custom mud entry and attached garage support a modern household’s busy lifestyle. More perks uncommon in a period home include a bright bonus room, already plumbed and big enough for both work and play, and a self-sufficient guest wing with every luxury imaginable.
