Sleeping five people
More than a home, this is a collection of thoughtfully designed spaces created for gathering, reflection, creativity, and restoration. Whether you are visiting Princeton University, celebrating a family milestone, attending a wedding, working remotely, or simply seeking a restorative getaway, each area of the property offers a unique experience.
THE GREAT HOUSE The heart of the retreat is a spacious four-bedroom, four-bathroom residence designed for connection and comfort. Elegant living areas invite conversation and gathering, while expansive windows bring the beauty of the surrounding property indoors. The home's thoughtful layout allows guests to spend time together while still finding quiet places for privacy and reflection.
THE COFFEE TERRACE Each morning begins with freshly roasted coffee beans available for grinding in-house. Enjoy your coffee from the brick patio or second-story deck while overlooking the peaceful grounds and listening to birdsong from the surrounding trees. The Coffee Terrace is the perfect place to begin a Princeton morning.
THE LIBRARY LOUNGE One side of the home is dedicated to quiet reading and conversation. Comfortable seating, natural light, and peaceful surroundings create a welcoming space to enjoy a favorite book, plan the day's activities, or simply unwind.
THE SCHOLAR'S NOOK Tucked away from the main gathering spaces is a smaller reading retreat designed for reflection, writing, study, or focused work. Inspired by Princeton's academic heritage, this intimate space provides a quiet refuge for thought and creativity.
THE WELLNESS STUDIO Dedicated to movement and mindfulness, the Wellness Studio provides space for yoga, Pilates, stretching, meditation, and personal wellness practices. Whether beginning the day with a morning stretch or ending it with evening meditation, guests can enjoy a peaceful environment designed to restore balance.
THE SAUNA BARN One of the property's most distinctive features is the Sauna Barn, a private wellness retreat set apart from the main residence. Housing an infrared sauna, this unique space offers a peaceful setting for relaxation and renewal. Guests can enjoy a restorative sauna session, meditate in quiet surroundings, or simply disconnect from the demands of daily life. The Sauna Barn transforms a stay into a true wellness experience.
THE PRIVATE SCHOLAR'S WING Occupying its own wing of the home, the primary suite serves as a private retreat within the retreat. This secluded area includes a spacious bedroom, dedicated office and meeting space, and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a steam shower. Whether working remotely, conducting virtual meetings, writing, or simply enjoying a quiet escape, the Private Scholar's Wing offers exceptional comfort and privacy.
THE WOODLAND SOAKING RETREAT On the opposite side of the home, overlooking a beautifully landscaped wooded portion of the property, sits the Blue Den and adjacent soaking tub retreat. This tranquil space offers a unique opportunity to relax in a deep soaking tub while enjoying views of nature and the surrounding gardens. Designed as a place of calm reflection, the Woodland Soaking Retreat provides a second spa experience that complements the steam shower and sauna.
THE DECK OVERLOOK Elevated above the grounds, the second-story deck provides sweeping views of the property's two-acre setting. Ideal for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or evening conversation, the Deck Overlook offers a peaceful perspective on the retreat's natural surroundings.
THE GARDEN PATIO The brick patio serves as an outdoor gathering space for dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying Princeton's beautiful seasons. Surrounded by mature landscaping, it provides a perfect setting for family meals, celebrations, and relaxed evenings under the stars.
THE TWO-ACRE SANCTUARY Rare for a property located so close to downtown Princeton, the retreat's expansive grounds provide a sense of seclusion and tranquility while remaining minutes from Princeton's restaurants, boutiques, museums, and university campus. Mature trees, landscaped gardens, and open outdoor spaces create an atmosphere that feels far removed from everyday life. Whether your stay is centered on family, wellness, work, celebration, or exploration, The Princeton Wellness Retreat offers something increasingly rare: space to slow down, reconnect, and experience Princeton in a way that is both inspiring and restorative.
