1 CHASE HOLLOW ROAD, HOPEWELL, NJ 08525

On the market for the first time since the original owners built it, this perfectly proportioned and classically appointed home offers five bedrooms, a new master bathroom, a built-in heated pool, a fenced flower and vegetable garden, and equal parts of comfort and elegance.Wood floors, neutral wall colors, and multi-layered trim—chair rails, door frames, stairwell paneling, and crown molding—throughout the home, which was built to look vintage, combine to create the effortless understated elegance typically found in country manor homes.  Thoughtful accents delight at every turn. In the formal living room with wood-burning fireplace, a tray ceiling draws the eye upward. At the back of the home, a welcoming sun room features a wall of built-in bookcases and windows trimmed with wooden plantation shutters, and leads into the family room, where the home’s second fireplace is a cozy place to gather.The kitchen opens to the family room on one side and the dining room on the other. Double wall ovens, a Bosch five-burner gas stove will delight discerning cooks, while bar seating and a breakfast area provide casual dining options. From the kitchen sink, enjoy a view through twin casement windows of the built-in pool and heated whirlpool, which can be turned on with an app.Front and back staircases lead to the second-floor sleeping quarters. Perhaps the most charming bedroom is the one tucked beneath the sloped roof. Just outside of it, a loft space in use as a casual media/game room could be reimagined in many ways. A nearby full bath is accessible to two adjoining bedrooms with twin closets in between. The fourth bedroom has its own private bath. The highlight of the master suite is its newly finished bathroom with twin pedestal sinks, a glass-doored shower with two shower heads and bench seating, and a deep soaking tub nestled beneath a skylight on the angled ceiling.Finishing the home’s layout is a mud/laundry room with access to the sidewalk and attached three-car garage, and a powder room conveniently located at the center of the first floor. Mature plantings include deciduous and evergreen trees, hydrangeas, and ornamental grasses in the fenced-in pool area. A buried water line makes watering the raised bed garden a breeze.Location wise, enjoy an easy commute to Princeton and major roadways, Routes 202, 1, 295, and nearby Pennington and Hopewell Boroughs downtowns dotted with cute boutiques and eateries.AC/FURNACE 2015, WHOLE HOUSE GENERATOR, INGROUND POOL/HOT TUB 2001, NEW ROOF 2022, NEW PRIMARY BATH 2020,  (2021)14 NEW ANDERSON WINDOWS WITH NEW TRIM ON MAIN FLOOR, (2022) 8 ANDERSON WINDOW AND TRIM 2ND FLOOR, (2022) NEW DRIVEWAY, POOL AND SPA UPGRADED
