About this House

Set at the end of a private road, this custom contemporary offers remarkable privacy on 2.5 wooded acres bordered by preserved state land, creating a tranquil setting minutes from Princeton. Designed to celebrate its natural surroundings, expansive windows, soaring ceilings, skylights, and multiple decks blur the line between indoors and out while framing peaceful woodland views from nearly every room. The dramatic open floor plan is anchored by a striking three-sided freestanding fireplace that brings warmth and ambiance to the great room as well as the dining area. The gourmet kitchen was updated in 2021 with a Thermador oven, Thermador dishwasher, and Delta faucet. A dedicated home office opens directly to the deck. A main-level bedroom sits beside a full bath, while upstairs an airy loft with its own private deck leads to the spacious primary suite, which also enjoys a private deck and a bathroom.Another bedroom and third full bath provide ample room for everyone. Above it all, a ladder-accessed bonus loft creates an inviting reading nook and there's a lower-level room with sliding doors to a patio that is currently used as a gym. Recent improvements include a new well pump and central air conditioning (2025), updated roof, reverse osmosis system, water softener, refreshed interior paint, and updated decking. Outside, a fire pit, generous guest parking, and an attached one-car garage with additional storage space complete this peaceful woodland setting.

    "Easy access to train and cities. Princeton is 3-4 mikes and has a lot restaurants,museums,nature, history and architecture. Plenty of farms, golf, tennis,fishing and hiking trails. Great dog park. Schools are in top ranking of US. "
  • Nbenedetto19
    "not good access to major interstate. good for local commutes to princeton and other big pharma but getting to north jersey is not great"
  • Sue
    "To live in Skillman, means you will need to own a car to get to get around. That said, it’s been a great community to raise a family."
  • Sue
    "The schools are great! Worth the high property taxes. Great place to raise a family. I’d highly recommend having a family here. This community is welcoming to all individuals."
  • Schmittm1
    "The Sourland Mountain area is a perfect place to live if you love nature and privacy without loosing the feeling of community. Many hiking trails and quiet areas, yet only minutes from restaurants in Princeton and Hopewell, and about and hour to Philly and NYC. Schools are excellent, and the neighbors are amazing (and not as pretentious as Princeton)!!!!!!!! I couldn't think of a better place to live! I love it here!"
  • Alicia T.
    "This is a great area to raise a family; top rated Montgomery Schools 50 min train commute to NYC friendly town and beautiful farmland surroundings . Skillman is the top rated town with easy access to Princeton University and town. "
  • Scarletaquatic
    "Anyone rating Montgomery Twp. schools at less than Excellent doesn't know what they're talking about. Also, there is a high density of private schools of the highest quality (well, and price...) in the immediate area. This is a spotlessly clean suburban community boarding on some of the most attractive rural areas in the mid-atlantic. Only real negative is lack of public transportation."
  • zolota
    "Extreme loud deafining freight train 47 per day..wet flood zonage."
  • MADERLDERS

  • metronorth

  • Bankrupy
    "Very loud 40 freight trains daily....This area has poor drainage soils."
