O: (215) 852-5500 | M: (610) 428-4885 art@addisonwolfe.com Getting to know me … I guess that when I was in my childhood, the first makings of a realtor developed. My father was a contractor and nothing to me was more exciting than visiting a new home under construction and the smell of pine. However, life took a different turn and I started a 30-year career teaching high school English in the New York School System. While I graded compositions and listened to Richard the III rant about a “kingdom for a horse,” I reflected on my past and knew that salesmanship needed to be in my future. Thus, my real estate career began and somehow I managed to juggle my educational career with the world of “metes and bounds.” During this time I rose to the No. 2 position in a prominent real estate firm in Bucks County and by the time I retired, I had risen to the No. 1 sales position in a company of 80 agents. Today, I am a partner in Addison Wolfe Real Estate, an agency that claims 50 fellow realtors on its roster and an impressively large market share for the Center City to Bucks County to Lehigh Valley demographics. I would have to say that part of my success is my years in education … working with daily

The Air of a European Estate One Hour from NYC 176 Parkside Drive, Princeton To pass through the iron gates into the stone courtyard is to be swept to another time and place. To share a meal beneath the canopy of sycamores beside the trickling fountain is simply magical. It’s hard to believe such a majestic structure started life 120 years ago as a dairy barn, one of 4 Tudor brick outbuildings on the Drumthwacket Estate. Today, clean lines and modern finishes, like custom iron staircases and a state-of-the-art Boffi kitchen, are just the right counterpoint to authentic barn doors and wood beams rising up to meet a 26-ft ceiling. The core of the house is open and dramatic with a huge fireplace anchoring one side. The kitchen, seamlessly clad in walnut, was designed with a chef’s movements in mind. A mezzanine library separates the private spaces of the top floor: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a sitting/family room. Some may choose to reserve this level as an all-encompassing owner’s suite, especially with 3 more bedrooms located in the just completed East wing, an inventive space that can be as integrated or separate as you’d like with just the swing of a door. A mudroom, 2 clever dorm-style baths, laundry room and loft make this airy wing full-service. The opposite wing serves a gym, media room and more. Don’t miss the wine cellar, al fresco Moroccan room or the workshop. With the slate roof restored and brick repointed under current ownership, there’s nothing to do, except maybe add a pool to the 2+ acre property. $3,950,000
Peaceful Views, Plentiful Space, Perfect Locale 51 Grasmere Way, Princeton Located in a leafy enclave just off of Princeton’s most picturesque winding road, close to a selection of renowned schools, sports fields and charming Pretty Brook Tennis Club, this all brick house has no shortage of space or style. Under a brand new roof, every room is airy and generous in scale beginning with the foyer, where custom iron balusters line the wide hardwood staircase. Ahead, the dining room has French doors to an amazing stone terrace running the length of the house, complete with a built-in spa. A handsomely detailed study crowned with a barrel vaulted ceiling was added off the living room offering a perfect work-from-home situation. In the well-planned kitchen, double sinks overlook a meadow alive with the sights and sounds of nature. A sunroom adjoining the two-story family room may be the most relaxing spot to savor the surroundings. The 4/5-bedroom floor plan offers ultimate flexibility with a main level suite, an exceptionally private suite atop the back stairs and a luxurious upstairs suite with a marble-tiled bathroom. Even the finely finished basement is full of useful space. $2,185,000
