Looking for a turnkey property? Look no further than this beautifully maintained and appointed four-bedroom home in Pennington’s Mershon Chase.
From the two-story entryway, take in the panoramic view of the home, starting with the formal open living room at the left and working around to the turned staircases leading up and down, the kitchen and sunroom, and the two-story family room at back. Tall windows, transoms and clerestories fill the home with natural light during the day, and recessed lights illuminate the evenings.
The heart of the home is at the back, where a wall of windows in the family room frames the view of a tranquil backyard, raised deck and small basketball court. A gas fireplace and plush wall-to-wall carpeting enhance the comfort of the space.
The neighboring kitchen with tile floor has a center island with granite counters and seating, a gas stove, a pantry, and a half-wall with serving ledge into what is currently used as a breakfast space, but could easily be reimagined as a sunroom with its peaked ceiling and walls of windows, including a single-pane picture window topped with an arched window. A nearby formal dining room is accented with crown molding and chair rail, and a powder room and mudroom finish out this level.
Side by side turned staircases lead up and down. In the finished basement, find a very spacious laundry room with upper and lower cabinets, and a large living space that’s carpeted and accented with a pumpkin-hued wall.
Upstairs, a railed landing looks over the entry and offers a glimpse through the clerestory window. Three bedrooms share a hall bath with tub/shower combo and twin sinks. The master suite, accessed through a double doorway, is outfitted with a spacious walk-in closet and a spa-like bath with glass-doored shower, jetted Jacuzzi soaking tub and private toilet.
Ample storage is available in the basement, attached two-car garage and attic.
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the home’s proximity to biking and walking paths, preserved open spaces and parks. Commuters will appreciate easy access to routes 295, 95 and 1, as well as the Hamilton and Princeton train stations. And just about everyone will appreciate the abundance of shopping and dining options in the Pennington and Hopewell downtowns, as well as nearby Princeton.
