Architect-designed mid-century modern on 2.55 private, wooded acres in Skillman. Set far back from the road and bordered by woods along the rear, this is a property where the land comes first - most days, the only sound is birdsong. Architect William Thompson called this home his "little gem," designing… Read More it in 1972 to sit quietly within its landscape and overseeing its construction; in 2000 he returned with craftsman Volker Klotz for a seamless renovation and expansion. The house is built to look outward: tall windows, skylights, and Andersen French doors bring the grounds into nearly every room. The heart of the home is a dramatic two-story living and dining space, where soaring vaulted ceilings rise above walls of glass facing the wooded rear yard. The updated kitchen adjoins a butler's pantry and laundry, and its breakfast area opens to a four-season sunroom - a front-row seat to the grounds in every season. Exposed beams, hardwood and hand-laid brick floors, and morning light throughout. Three bedrooms and two full baths include a primary suite with dressing room, walk-in closet, and a private balcony overlooking the trees. A loft library and flexible rooms on both levels offer space for a home office, studio, or guest quarters. The fully deer-fenced 2.55 acres offer rare privacy and room to garden, explore, and enjoy the outdoors, just minutes from Princeton / Route 206 / train, in the Montgomery Township school district. A classic mid-century carport completes the design. Read Less
