One of a kind, mid-century modern design by a noted Princeton architect, characterized by its clean lines and integration with nature, this magnificent home is showcased on Princeton's remarkable Snowden Lane. Not only is this home close-to-downtown Princeton, but the era's classic hallmarks shine brightly in the home's open floor plan, and the ample windows and skylights bring the outdoors in. The entrance to this house is a unique experience: dramatic and contemporary, yet warm and welcoming. The dining room, with a beautiful wood ceiling and stone floor, has a window wall looking out onto a meditative side patio garden with trees. The living room features vaulted ceilings with light from three directions during the day, a wood-burning fireplace, and ceiling-high windows. To the left is the master suite which has a skylight, cozy fireplace and private bath. To the right the open layout invites you into kitchen, family room, and a deck beyond. Further right, is a room with a vaulted ceiling and a window wall which overlooks the large, even, treed back-yard. This room, with built-in cabinets, plumbing connections and walk-in closet is currently an artist studio hobby room, but could easily serve as an office or play room and potentially an expanded family room or a very large additional master suite, complete with a private bathroom. A bar area is situated just off the kitchen and adjoins the family room. The back of the house includes a suite of additional two bedrooms, a bath, and a huge laundry room, which could be transformed back to a 4th bedroom. Down a spiral staircase is a large, bright and sunny finished walkout basement, with lots of windows! This home, with its different areas and suites, in combination with the open flowing communal areas, allows friends and family a wide range of activities, separately or together. The circular driveway allows 4+ car parking, and this home is situated within walking distance to Littlebrook School, Princeton High School, Princeton Shopping Center, and Princeton University, as well as a short walk to the bus to Manhattan, or a short 10 minute ride to the Princeton Junction Train Station. A MUST see!
