UPDATE: THIS HOME IS OFF THE MARKET 

A major recent remodel has turned this 1952 Cape into a transitionally modern stunner. Using a Main Line Philadelphia architect, a Philadelphia steel artisan, a Bucks County stonemason, and Princeton Contractor, the project was in the hands of consummate, quality driven professionals.  In a house of this size and price range, it’s rare to find a house that needs no renovations. It sits on one acre in Hopewell, NJ, surrounded by lush foliage, on the same country road with  350 acres of Preserved land. It’s minutes from Princeton but without Princeton property taxes.

With the demise of the dated trend toward resource guzzling  McMansions and cookie-cutter development houses, along with the very real desire to have a home where all living areas are carefully curated, this might be the perfect house.

27 Aunt Molly was designed giving careful attention to how a family actually uses a house combined with a desire to make it comfortable yet luxe through the use high quality materials and a dialed sense of style. 5000 square feet of  living space with an airy, open interior flow is great for entertaining, and the property is fantastic for kids with large areas to play and already has an invisible fence installed for pets.

PRICE:

The owners have invested $2.1 million into the home but have adjusted the price significantly to reflect current housing market.  The home can’t be comped by Zillow or other online market watchers who guestimate value, because Aunt Molly Road has very few homes and they range from $6 million to half a million. Last price assessment was done before the home was remodeled.  Call or email for price.

THE BASICS:

There are no small offices being touted as bedrooms, as seen in some listings.  The office and large studio are additional.  If one chooses, the studio could easily become a very spacious master suite with its own fireplace and covered veranda.

Aunt Molly Road is less than two miles long and has very few homes but several animals!  One major property has horse boarding stables and several others have “gentlemens’ farms,” where sheep, cows, and even emus can be found roaming.  A tributary off the Millstone River carves its way back and forth through the road and also runs throughout the Preserve that is the hallmark beauty of Aunt Molly Road living!  See neighborhood for photos of Aunt Molly Road and scroll down for more photos or go to  GALLERY for interior photos.
