31 Donovan Rd, Pennington, NJ 08534

One of the best lots in desirable Mershon Chase, with protected privacy in back and extra green space adjacent, is just around the bend from Blue Ribbon awarded Stony Brook Elementary School and township parks offering tennis courts, soccer fields and the 22-mile Lawrence-Hopewell Trail. It's no wonder the original owners have stayed put to enjoy the location and the bright, open interior. The sunny home begins with hardwood flooring in the 2-story entry and crown molding edging the openly adjoining formal rooms. Natural stone and granite, updated appliances and a view through the sunroom to the tall trees beyond make the eat-in kitchen a joy to use! In the family room, transom-topped windows stretching to the 10-ft ceiling flank a traditional fireplace. Even more bright space for play and/or exercise is found in the finished, walk-out basement sporting brand new wood-grain flooring and fresh paint. Ample storage, a powder room and patio make this level even more welcoming and functional, whatever its use! Upstairs, four bedrooms include a main suite with a walk-in closet, sitting room and a primary bath done in shades of taupe and 3 well-proportioned bedrooms that share a gray and white bath. Lastly, a big deck made of ultra-durable Brazilian ipe takes full advantage of the private location and woodsy scenery.
