51 Aunt Molly Rd, Hopewell, NJ 08525

Perched high in a clearing surrounded by woods, a refined Hopewell Township home artfully renovated by Glen Fries & Art Smith has rustic undertones appropriate to the enveloping natural setting. The 13-acre lot merges with St. Michaels Preserve presenting hikers & horse lovers endless trails to explore. A farm down the road boards horses &just beyond that are the shops & eateries of the Borough. Taking full advantage of its southern exposure, a lovely terrace beneath a discreetly fenced pool basks in sunshine, which filters through French doors into the formal rooms & a circular breakfast room. Architectural details, such as a coffered ceiling above the family room's stone fireplace and cherry built-ins, give rooms memorable dimension, while unseen upgrades, like radiant heat, enhance comfort. A big window in the renovated 1st floor master suite follows the curve of a barrel-vaulted ceiling. Upstairs, 3 bedrooms and a loft offer just the right amount of useful space for family & occasional guests.
