Great Warmth Amid Turn-of-the-Century Ambiance

2 Constitution Hill East, Princeton, New Jersey 08540 United States

As part of the Mansion at Constitution Hill, which was once the Morgan estate, this magnificent home retains the ambiance of Princeton's turn-of-the-century estates with period architectural details and grand spaces with great warmth. Mahogany inset paneling soars to 11' ceilings in the entrance hall, with glass-framed views of the patio, pergola, and groomed grounds. The expansive living room, the mansion's former library, is exquisitely rendered with carved bookcases, 8' limestone fireplace, and a gold-leafed tracery ceiling. Classic black granite, ample white cabinetry, and a matching banquette adorn a modern kitchen. The dining room, currently used as a family room, feels like a jewel box with pretty molding and vaulted ceiling. A carved, turned staircase leads to a sitting room/bedroom with a fireplace, and an elegant full bath that offers inside access to a 2nd bedroom with a diamond-patterned wardrobe. The refined master suite offers a fireplace, arched sitting area, lovely bath, and a sunlit study lined with built-in cabinetry. The expansive terrace overlooks the beautifully manicured common gardens. Enjoy use of the great hall for entertaining.
