Description

Not far from the heart of Princeton, Tulane Barn was once a working dairy barn, but this incredible 19th-century structure, built of hand-hewn timbers and brick, was reimagined into a home of striking character and craftsmanship. The rebirth was so artful, in fact, that it garnered an architectural award for excellence in 2012 and, since then, has undergone further improvements and enhancements under its current stewardship.The barn's massive post and beam framework has been left exposed, lending a rugged honesty to the soaring interior. New flooring runs throughout the main level, grounding the space in warmth. Light pours through floor-to-ceiling windows in the Great Room, where telescoping doors slide open to an expansive deck and views of the home's glorious grounds. At the center of it all is the kitchen, which includes a suite of high-end appliances, new counters, and some new cabinetry. Upstairs, the primary suite is equal parts comfort and serenity, with a spa-inspired bath that feels like a private retreat. A second suite with a bath offers quiet refuge, while three additional bedrooms share another bathroom. The two-car garage opens into a lower-level finished vestibule, a perfect spot to drop the car keys and leave backpacks. All of this, within the top-ranked Montgomery school district, makes Tulane Barn not just a beautiful place to live, but a thoughtful place to put down roots.
