Welcome to “The Bouwerie” - where modern country living meets historic significance in one of Princeton’s most iconic homesteads. Originally built in 1772 and standing witness to George Washington’s time in Princeton, the historic core of this remarkable property has been carefully preserved. Yet, the home has evolved far beyond its proudly understated origin. A dramatic renovation and expansion have transformed it into a spacious, light-filled residence designed for contemporary life - all while honoring its rich architectural heritage. Inside, original details like hand-hewn beams, wide pine floors, and a walk-in beehive fireplace bring warmth and character to the heart of the home. Stone steps lead to a quiet study and half bath that once served very different purposes, while a fireplace surrounded by Delft tile offers a distinctive focal point. These historic elements root the home in its past - but its scale, layout, and flow reflect modern sensibilities. The newer wing, seamlessly integrated with the original structure, begins with a welcoming entry beneath a striking stained-glass skylight. This addition dramatically opened up the floor plan, creating space for a formal living room, sunroom, family room, and powder room — all featuring handcrafted finishes, custom cabinetry, and curated lighting. Two wood-burning fireplaces add warmth and ambiance throughout. The country-style kitchen bridges past and present with a brick-enclosed Aga range, custom pine cabinetry, and a charming breakfast nook framed by carved wood moldings. Below, a fully finished lower level provides flexible space - ideal for a media room, gym, or playroom. Upstairs, the original second floor offers two bedrooms, two full baths, and a whimsical bonus room with its own private entrance - perfect for guests or a tucked-away family space. The expansive second level of the new addition includes three additional bedrooms, four full bathrooms, a laundry room, and a luxurious primary suite. This retreat features its own sitting area, gas fireplace, dressing room, jetted tub, sauna, double steam shower, exercise alcove, and two private porches. Outdoors, the grounds are just as impressive. A stone patio with built-in BBQ overlooks a tranquil pond. A 52-foot vanishing-edge pool, in-ground hot tub, and formal English knot garden create a private, resort-like setting. A wooded path winds along a stream leading to Stony Brook - perfect for quiet walks and reflection. Even the garage has been reimagined: expanded for four cars, with a finished upper level ideal for an office, studio, or guest suite. While the spirit of the 1772 farmhouse still anchors the home, The Bouwerie has become a truly one-of-a-kind residence - thoughtfully expanded and designed to support modern living, all just three miles from Nassau Street and Princeton University.
