Description
Once a grand 19th-century brick mansion, this Gilded Age Princeton original has undergone anextraordinary metamorphosis at the hands of design visionary Bela Rossmann of Polo DesignBuild. Reimagined from top to bottom, the home is now a tour de force of 21st-centurymodernism layered over old-world craftsmanship. Rossmanns reworking doesnt erase thepast, it enhances it. What was once formal is now fluid, and what was once historic is nowtimeless. Original woodwork is preserved alongside striking new elements like flat-panel walnutcabinetry, custom Italian lighting, and bold marble accents. In the redesigned kitchen, solidwalnut drawers glide under striking quartz counters and a Sub-Zero suite anchors the space,while an 8-burner Wolf range presides beneath a sleek hood. A central hall with herringbonefloors and timeless circular stairs with bespoke custom-designed 14 glass pendants beneath aleaded glass skylight gives way to a paneled library and den with hidden shelving and a bright,elegant dining room. The former ballroom now serves as a vaulted-ceiling great room, withmultiple seating arrangements allowing the space to be comfortable for a small gathering or agrand entertainment space, that opens to two garden spaces, one featuring a brick courtyardwith the other, redesigned gardens and lawn edged in clipped Hawthorne tree hedges. Thereare eight fireplaces and 14 separate climate zones, making comfort as customizable as thedesign. The primary suite is nothing short of a private wellness retreat, complete with twospa-like bathrooms, a marble-clad tub room, a shower room with an oversized shower controlledby an electronic keypad, heated floors, and a dressing room worthy of a fashion editorial. Fouradditional bedrooms include two guest suites and a pair of mirror-image bedrooms connectedby a Jack-and-Jill bath. A sunny multipurpose room with exposed brick and skylights serves asthis homes kick-back-and-relax space near a handy second staircase leading to an organized mudroom and the heated two-car garage. Every detail has been touched, yet the soul of thishome remains intact. An impeccable vision and design executed to the Nth degree.
