Converted Stone Stables Just 2.3 Miles to Town

72 Arreton Road, Princeton, New Jersey 08540 United States

Once-in a lifetime opportunity to own part of the historic Rothers Barrows estate in Princeton. This charming, secluded Tudor-style country home was built around the original stone stables designed by the estate’s celebrated Philadelphia architect, Wilson Eyre, in 1919. This home has been lovingly and thoughtfully renovated with every creature comfort by the same owners for over thirty years and is proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The true beauty reveals itself once you enter the unassuming garden gates where over 1.5 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, mature trees, a sun-dappled pool and cedar-shake roof transport you into your own private country retreat. Perfect for hosting multi-generational gatherings, the home has four generous main level bedrooms and four full bathrooms. The magnificent great room boasts hefty wooden beams, a beautiful wood ceiling, original stone walls and an oversized wood-burning fireplace. A charming anteroom holds a wet bar that also serves the dining room, which is brightened by skylights and French doors. Exposed stone and rustic beams are featured throughout the home, most notably in the cottage-style kitchen and the seamlessly designed main-suite addition. There is a generously sized library, a main-suite airy loft and a fully finished studio with half bath over the two-car garage offering a choice of spots for a home office or for hosting extra guests. The large outdoor stone patio sits adjacent to the dining room and main suite, which overlooks the spacious back lawn providing a glorious spot for outdoor dining or relaxing. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of history that exudes luxury and tranquility in equal measure.
