About This Home
Set on just over six acres along one of East Amwell’s most picturesque country roads, this meticulously maintained custom residence offers a rare combination of refined living, total privacy and beautiful views in every direction. Designed by the current owners and built in 2003, the approximately 4,100-square-foot home is approached through a serene pastoral setting, creating an immediate sense of retreat. Inside, a gracious center-hall floor plan unfolds with generously scaled rooms, custom millwork and abundant natural light. The main level features elegant formal living and dining rooms, a spacious eat-in kitchen with a large central island and stainless-steel appliances, and a vaulted sunroom that opens to the professionally landscaped grounds and pool. A large family room provides an inviting setting for gatherings and entertaining, while an additional room with an adjoining full bath offers exceptional flexibility as a guest suite, private office, fitness room or first-floor bedroom. A powder room and dedicated laundry room with utility sink complete the level. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a luxurious private sanctuary with its own sitting room (currently used as a craft room), a large walk-in closet and a newly renovated bath with a double vanity, a walk-in glass shower and a soaking tub. Three additional bedrooms--including one en-suite and another currently used as a home office--complete the second floor. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. Surrounded by mature trees and landscaping, the property feels wonderfully secluded. A spacious stone terrace, swimming pool and substantial pool house--designed to complement the architecture of the main residence--create a private resort-like setting for summer entertaining, quiet afternoons and evenings beneath the open sky. Additional amenities include an immaculate three-car garage, dual staircases, recently replaced dual-zone HVAC systems, a whole-house generator, comprehensive water-treatment and reverse-osmosis systems, and an enormous unfinished basement with approximately 11-foot ceilings and exceptional potential for future living, recreation or wellness space. Ideally located just 15 minutes from Flemington, Lambertville and New Hope, 25 minutes from Princeton, one hour from Philadelphia and approximately 90 minutes from New York City, the property offers easy access to the exceptional shopping, galleries, dining, arts and cultural life of the region’s most desirable towns—while remaining peaceful, pastoral and remarkably private.
