For those who prefer single-level living, yet refuse to sacrifice space or style, this sprawling ranch on a quiet cul de sac delivers. Renovated inside and out by a talented decorator and designer, every inch wows and every space works. Special touches that only a true professional could nail are found throughout, like the built-in wall of storage that brings a pop of vibrant color to the living room or the crisp white wood walls wrapping the den. Only the best time-tested materials were used in the bathrooms and in the well-lit, eat-in kitchen featuring a lengthy center island. Just outside, lush plantings surround a pergola-sheltered patio that accommodates all your guests for al fresco meals. The dining room, just as big, is ideal for holiday dinners with a cozy fireplace at one end. Some may opt to use this sizable space as the family room, attesting to the flexibility of the dynamic floor plan. Those with frequent guests, or perhaps an au pair or caregiver, will love the comfortably large suite that’s separated from the main bedroom wing. A skylit corridor culminates with the primary suite offering a cleverly integrated work station, a luxurious bathroom tiled floor-to-ceiling in carrera marble, separate organized closets and access to a pretty side patio edged with boxwoods. Another fully tiled bath serves two more beautifully appointed bedrooms. Even the powder room feels like a marble-clad jewel box. A two-car garage with storage loft and a generous driveway lined with flowering crepe myrtle complete the 1.39-acre property, which is just 3.5 miles from downtown with a Princeton address.
