New to the market is one of the first homes built in Brandon Farms. Cherished by only one family since, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home with front and back staircases is ready for new owners.From the front porch, which sits atop a welcoming brick stairway, enjoy views of the neighborhood and the professionally landscaped yard dotted with specimen trees, shrubs and gurgling water fountain features.The grand scale continues inside with a 2-story foyer filled with natural light from the transom, sidelights and a clerestory window atop a display ledge, and 9-foot ceilings in the main rooms. To the right, a home office with private full bath and roomy closet could easily be a bedroom. To the left, a formal living room adjoins the dining room, with pillared half-walls to mark the transition.The eat-in kitchen with island and spacious pantry opens to a maintenance-free deck overlooking a deep backyard, and to the 2-story family room where built-in bookcases flank a gas fireplace and the back wall is filled two rows of windows topped by Palladian arches. It is the perfect place from which to enjoy nature’s majesty as the seasons change.The second level, reachable by a staircase from the family room and a turned staircase from the foyer, offers three carpeted bedrooms sharing a hall bath with twin vanities and a private bath/shower. The master suite enjoys a heart-shaped jetted soaking tub, glass shower, double vanity and private toilet, a soaring vaulted ceiling, and a generously sized walk-in closet. The landing overlooks the family room and has a bank of cabinets with countertop perfect for a coffee station for lazy weekend mornings.Additional living space awaits in the finished basement, set up as a media room at one end and offering concealed storage and enough room housing a home gym at the other.The star of the attached two-car garage is the motorized lift capable of holding up to 3,000 pounds. A mud/laundry room entry with a deep closet connects the garage to the family room.As part of the Brandon Farms community, homeowners enjoy a number of amenities, including an outdoor pool, tennis courts, playgrounds. and clubhouse. Too many amenities to list, a must see!Location-wise, there is very little through-traffic, and access to local shops and eateries, commuter routes (including Routes 1, 206 and 95), and short drives to Princeton, Lawrenceville and nearby train stations with service to New York City and Philadelphia.

While Georgian architecture was certainly in style when Gen. Washington crossed the nearby Delaware River, this home built in 1989 deftly combines the classic lines of a bygone era with all the modern amenities. This gracious home is also ideal for casual entertaining.Set back on 3.25 acres, the home is at the top of a gracefully curved driveway that ends at the attached three-car garage. The brick front landing leads to a double-wide door that opens into a two-story foyer, the centerpiece of which is a spectacular split staircase.To the left is the formal dining room, and to the right, the formal living room and then a home office. At the center of the first level are the family/game room, spacious enough for a seating area and billiards table, and a cook’s kitchen with island seating, breakfast nook, white cabinets and appliances, and pale gray accents at the counters and on the floors. Tall windows, French doors and skylights flood the lower level with light, while elegant woodwork near and at the ceilings draw the eye upward. Two woodburning fireplaces, in the living and family rooms, are inviting focal points.At the top of the stairs, enter the master suite through a double-wide door. A sleeping area adjoins a sitting area with fireplace and private balcony. A nearby dressing area leads to two walk-in closets and a bathroom that provides a true spa experience, from the cool tile against your toes to the deep oval soaking tub beneath a bank of windows and skylights. A glass-door shower with built-in bench seating is nearby, twin sinks bookend the room, and a bidet and private toilet complete the layout.A carpeted Jack-and-Jill suite occupies one end of the second level, and two additional carpeted bedrooms share a hall bath at the other end.The area surrounding the home is as elegant as its interior, with a screened porch that converts to a sunroom and an inground heated pool that is nicely sized.The homeowners have lavished plenty of attention on the home in recent years, with fresh paint on the deck, porch and the kitchen cabinets, and the installation of a new well pump, a water filtration/softening system, two automatic garage door openers, safety pool cover, washer and dryer, furnace, water heater, ADT alarm system and A/C compressors. The basement was steam cleaned and the driveway repaved. The roof was replaced in 2009.Location wise, the home is minutes from New Hope, and Lambertville and a short drive to Princeton, Pennington, and Hopewell.
