12 Tyson Ln, Princeton, NJ 08540

Custom built by it's current owner, this special house is both big and beautiful! The entry is so welcoming, with a bluestone walk leading to a covered front porch, just perfect for rocking chairs. Above the porch is a spectacular rounded "folly," providing not only a soft and soaring welcome, but an architect's clever invitation to come on in. Large entry continues the feeling of space, as it opens to a living room on the left side and a formal dining room fit for any holiday entertaining on your right. Straight ahead, continuing this contemporary interpretation of a traditional center hall colonial, is the family room. One of the best spaces ever, this room has a fireplace, walls of windows overlooking the inground pool, and tons of space. Curving into the kitchen and breakfast area, you will find a second fireplace. One is gas; the other woodburning. The kitchen is, as you might imagine, spacious, with every top-of -the line appliance, and custom cabinets. The cool surprise here is that it connects to a superb sunroom, having skylights and windows, also with a pool view, and entry to a winding deck traveling along most of the back of the house. This deck, with plenty of space to relax, enables you to enjoy the absolutely spectacular grounds (1.6 acres!) Upstairs are four bedrooms and two full baths, with the main bedroom, ensuite, of course, having a huge jetted tub and separate shower. This bedroom also has access to it's own deck! The cutest study/nursery is on this level, as well. Creativity and versatility combine into one great package containing everything you need to live the good life. Professionally finished, with a half bath, the walk-out basement has a carpeted area for playing games and relaxing after your swim. There is also an uncarpeted space perfect for more active games or dripping dry!!! Summer, Fall, Winter, or Spring, this space is terrific. A truly exceptional Princeton offering!
