31 Westerly Road , Princeton, NJ 08540 - Mercer County

This custom-built Western Section home with distinctive modern Mediterranean style offers unparalleled outdoor amenities and voluminous rooms with the uncommon ability to feel equally comfortable for daily life and large-scale entertaining. While the saltwater pool with integrated spa is the main attraction of the fenced backyard, the half-acre-plus lot has something for everyone. A sprawling lawn is ideal for burgeoning athletes and four-legged friends with energy to burn. A covered kitchen and dining patio present the grillmaster with plenty of space to prep, cook, and serve. All of this is surrounded by new hardscaping and meticulously manicured greenery, including a formal courtyard garden leading up to the magnificent entry. Open the doors to reveal a great room detailed with a chiseled stone accent wall, a floating staircase with a glass and steel railing, and an abundance of windows dressed in tailored custom shades. While this space is certainly refined, nothing about it feels off-limits. The streamlined kitchen functions flawlessly with seamlessly integrated appliances, ample recessed lighting, and a big pantry to ensure you’re always well-stocked when people pull up a seat at the tiered island. The openly adjoining 2-story family room is accentuated by vertical windows, while a stone fireplace keeps the airy space grounded. Custom doors, designer finishes, and organized closets make all five bedrooms and their bathrooms feel special, including a first floor suite with direct access to the pool. Upstairs, a glass “skywalk” separates the main suite with a fireplace-warmed sitting area, covered balcony, and soothing neutral bath with an oval tub and rain shower. The finished basement is the go-to spot for casual hang-outs with new polished concrete floors that are virtually indestructible. This walk-out level includes a theater, game room, gym, and a second laundry in the half bath. Thoughtful, modern features within this 2018 home include a 240V outlet for EV charging, app controlled irrigation, and high-tech air filtration. To have the ease of nearly new construction, more than enough space for open-door entertaining, and the convenience of a location less than one mile from downtown and Princeton campus is the epitome of living well!
