A Legacy Property Lovingly Restored and Proudly Maintained 94 North Road Princeton, New Jersey 08540 United States

In 1932, if you wanted to commission a grand residence in Princeton, there was a definitive architect at the top of the list. Rolf Bauhan was responsible for many elegant homes on the Western side of town, but none so romantic and full of storybook beauty as this Norman Tudor. After a multi-million dollar restoration in 2000, the whole house is in better-than-new condition with countless modern enhancements that respect Bauhan’s vision, like custom interior storms on all leaded glass windows and radiant heat for woodwork that remains undisturbed. Carved embellishments, limestone fireplaces, window seats and even a secret passage are captivating, one-of-a-kind details that add to the magical atmosphere. Antique stone tile, Carrara marble and black walnut are timeless choices spanning the butler’s pantry and the bespoke eat-in kitchen served by a full suite of Viking appliances. While the formal rooms are plenty big enough for any party, hosting friends in the basement speakeasy is irresistible. A gas fireplace, a copper bar and a wine cellar with a working safe make the party room, which seats up to 32 guests, feel intimate. The rooms of the upper levels cater to restful retreat and focused work. The bright primary suite is lined with windows overlooking the rear lawn. Its marble bathroom boasts a steam shower, while a second half-bath off the dressing room features a stunning vanity sourced from the Pierre Hotel. Closets throughout the halls and five bedrooms are lined with cedar, even on the third floor where guests get the turret sitting room all to themselves. Those working from home can choose between a roomy office up the back stairs or the laboratory of the original owner, a noted Princeton chemist. At over 3 acres, the estate-sized property can easily accommodate a pool, sport court and even tented celebrations. In fact, plans and permits already exist for a future pool next to the covered terrace. Additional patios more intimate in size are edged with peonies and professionally tended heirloom roses flourishing against garden walls. Brick walls also conceal the 3-bay garage and a parking court. Everything from the slate roof to the copper gutters to the basement systems have been maintained with scrupulous care, allowing new stewards of this storied property to rest easy and relish its enduring beauty.
