In a community known for its elegance and refinement, 17 Banyan Road rises to a level all its own. Nestled on a premier lot between the 3rd green and 4th tee of the Rees Jones-designed Cherry Valley golf course, this residence is one of just a handful of Custom Club homes—and one of only two with this extraordinary layout. With sweeping fairway views, high-end finishes, and a lifestyle of effortless sophistication, this is one of Cherry Valley’s crown jewels. Inside, every detail speaks to luxury and thoughtful design. The striking two-story foyer with its double barrel-vaulted ceiling and graceful spiral staircase makes a memorable first impression. Step into the dramatic great room where a new gas-insert fireplace is flanked by soaring windows that frame breathtaking golf course views. With its seamless connection to the dining room, this is a home that was made for both quiet evenings and elegant entertaining. The heart of the home is a stunningly renovated kitchen, where sleek white cabinetry and quartz countertops meet top-tier appliances—including an integrated refrigerator, double oven, warming drawer, wine cooler, drawer microwave, beverage fridge, and dedicated ice maker. A center island under lantern-style pendant lights provides the perfect perch for morning coffee or casual meals, while the adjacent breakfast area opens to a deck ideal for summertime grilling. A cozy seating nook with walls of windows ensures that even everyday moments are surrounded by beauty. The first-floor primary suite is a true retreat. Behind double doors, you'll find a tray ceiling with elegant crown molding, a walk-in bay window, and serene golf course views. The custom closet is a dream come true, with built-in organizers and even a full-height rotating lazy Susan for shoes and accessories. The spa-style bath pampers with a jetted tub, multi-head shower with frameless glass shower door, and a private water closet with bidet. Upstairs, a sunny loft offers the perfect home office or lounge space, while two generous bedrooms share a beautifully updated bath. A fourth bedroom with its own en suite bath sits in a private wing, offering flexible space for guests, in-laws, or an au pair—complete with charming window seats and built-in storage. The finished basement is ready for fun and function alike, featuring a full bath, home theater with surround sound, gym, office or playroom, cedar closet, and extensive storage. Additional upgrades throughout the home include a full-home generator, Savant cutting-edge smart home system that seamlessly integrates various aspects of your home including lighting and climate control, three-zone HVAC, new hot water heater (2024), and a newer roof, Pella windows with internal blinds, and Hardie board siding completed in 2020 that added instant curb appeal. Even the garage got an upgrade with new insulated doors, built-in storage, and finished flooring. Step outside to a paver patio overlooking the pristine greens, and savor the peace, privacy, and panoramic beauty that surrounds you. Life at Cherry Valley also offers the option to join a vibrant country club community, featuring a resort-style pool, racquet sports, state-of-the-art fitness center, and so much more. All of this is set within Montgomery Township’s top-rated school district and just minutes from the charm and culture of downtown Princeton. Elegant, inviting, and undeniably one of the most luxe homes in Cherry Valley—17 Banyan Road is an extraordinary lifestyle opportunity.
