Priory Court

Every year the Junior League of Greater Princeton picks a beautiful home to do up with all the latest and greatest the interior design world has to offer. Then, they open it to the public for anyone seeking  inspiration. They always use local talent and all proceeds go to charity. This year’s tour promises to be a special one as it is at Priory Court in the beautiful Edgerstoune neighborhood of Princeton. Priory Court was designed in 1933 by renowned architect, Alfred Hopkins. Hopkins was known as an estate architect who specialized in country houses and farms. He had a long list of well to do clients, including the highly discriminating Louis Comfort Tiffany, but it turns out his most difficult client to please was indeed himself:  he spent over 20 years searching for the perfect location to build his own estate, the stunning Priory Court! The attention to detail, quality of craftsmanship and old-world feel are extraordinary. We have it on good authority that Albert Einstein loved the music wing so much that he logged countless hours playing his violin there. The tour runs from April 22^nd to May 20^th.  There as some pretty nifty events planned so be sure to check the JLGP website at  www.jlgp.org . There is a one on one design consultation day, a special showhouse scoop tour with Princeton Tour Companies Mimi O and architect extraordinaire Max Hayden, and much more. We also cannot fail to mention (we are after all ladies of real estate) that this beautiful estate is…FOR SALE! http://www.callawayhenderson.com/listing/NJ/Princeton/124-Edgerstoune-Road/5715575/554810 . Enjoy!  Sig&Syl

If the thought of moving in to a home and not having to fix a thing appeals to you, then this is the home for you! A custom Spanish cedar front door welcomes all to this meticulously renovated brick and cedar colonial set on a hill near the Princeton Battlefield. A gracious foyer leads to a large living room and adjacent sunroom. A handsome dining room segues to a stunning kitchen with hand–painted custom cabinetry, mahogany island, and high-end appliances (Subzero, Wolfe, Viking, Miele). The fabulous great room overlooks the park-like yard and, like the rest of the home, enjoys an abundance of natural light. Also on the main floor is a cozy den/office with built-in Murphy bed. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a master suite with walk-in closet, fireplace, and luxurious bath. The lower level boasts a rec room, laundry room, and wine cellar. From the copper roof and gutters to the custom millwork and fir interior doors with oil-rubbed bronze hardware, this Lewis Barber restoration is truly spectacular. A blue stone patio, stone retaining walls, and petanque court with a second patio complete this magnificent property!
