Property Description

In a leafy Lawrenceville locale that was spotlighted in 1959 by Town Topics and certified by McCall’s Magazine as a model of better living, this Mid-Century marvel stands as a testament to architectural excellence. Designed by Victor Olgyay, a renowned local architect, Princeton professor, and early champion of bioclimatic design, it is a study in how buildings can harmonize with their environment. Olgyay, who joined Princeton’s faculty in 1953, was known for his pioneering work in integrating climate, light, and sound into architectural form. His approach emphasized not just shelter, but symbiosis, and that is a philosophy that finds elegant expression here. Step inside to find a vast see-through fireplace anchoring the interior, linking formal and casual spaces with elemental grace. The living room, framed by a wall of glass, has sliders that open to a fully fenced, parklike yard, dissolving the boundary between indoors and out. Thoughtfully updated for contemporary living, the kitchen now features poured concrete counters, stainless steel appliances, and a farm sink, with its industrial touches softened by original timber ceilings and lighting. Bedrooms are all on the same level, with the main suite offering its own bath and two additional rooms sharing a hall bathroom. Below, an unfinished but waterproofed basement offers potential. A two-car garage port completes the picture. Here is the proof that good design, when rooted in nature, is always in style.
