Historic Glencairn - Just three miles from Princeton and currently operating as a Condé Nast award-winning Bed and Breakfast, this storied property could continue its tradition as a beloved area inn or be restored to a single-family home with space to grow. A celebrated hospitality destination with the feel of a private estate, the home's stone foundation dates to 1697, anchoring it in centuries of American history. A full-scale renovation in 2005 by Ford3 Architects ushered in modern features, including radiant heat, instant hot water, zoned central air, and major structural reinforcements. The transformation also included new plumbing and electrical systems, conversion to natural gas and city sewer, and the installation of slate and cedar roofs. More recent upgrades include a central fire alarm, a full-house generator, fresh paint, and a resealed driveway. The floor plan includes six en-suite bedrooms, a spacious kitchen with a large walk-in pantry, formal rooms, a home office, and the great room with a walk-in fireplace in the oldest part of the house. Three historic outbuildings include a relocated 19th-century barn now serving as a garage, a stone smokehouse, and stone stables. Featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, NJ Countryside, and numerous local publications, here is a turnkey opportunity to own a piece of the area’s rich history with an invitation to write its next chapter!
