Leave all expectations behind when you come to this imaginatively designed modern home discreetly nestled into Princetons Western Section. What appears to be a cozy mahogany-clad house tucked behind stone garden walls is revealed to be a dramatic 2-story modern barn with soaring wood ceilings, expansive windows and a massive 2-sided stone fireplace defining an otherwise wide-open floor plan. The grounds, too, offer so much more than initially meets the eye with a stone terrace with integrated spa overlooking a rolling lawn dotted with impressive trees and a heated gunite pool. The elite team of Lucash Montgomery and A+B Design Lab are responsible for the concept and build of the barn-like structure as well as transforming the pre-existing mid-century home to blend with the new construction. The result is an extraordinary design that lends itself to both intimate nightly dinners and grand-scale entertaining. The kitchen functions like a Michelin-star restaurant with a workhorse Wolf range, full-size Sub-Zeros and an ingeniously designed marble-topped island with a multi-functional trough running down the middle. While there are far too many custom details to list, a translucent floor panel is especially intriguing, a hint that the walk-out lower level is not to be overlooked. This includes a bedroom wing with three large rooms sharing two large bathrooms. Of course, downstairs is where youll also find the wine cellar, as well as a family room with yet another fireplace flanked
