Princeton Farmhouse, A 82-Acre Event Space, Opening In 2022

PRINCETON, NJ — A new event space will be coming to Princeton by summer 2022.

Chef Max Hansen from Bucks County, Pennsylvania who is chef and owner of Max Hansen Caterer, recently purchased a 25,000 square foot, multimillion-dollar property at 328 Carter Road in Princeton.

Hansen plans to convert this property into “a world-class event space worthy of the community.”

Named The Princeton Farmhouse, this event space is nestled within a preserved 82-acre sylvan campus and located seven minutes from downtown Princeton.

The Princeton Farmhouse will include full-service catering and event facility, a commissary kitchen, and offices.

Hansen will also be partnering with several local farms, including Cherry Grove Farms, Terhune Orchards and Blue Moon Acres, to provide local ingredients for his menus.

The venue is being designed by Princeton-based Studio Hillier. Construction will begin late summer 2021, with completion slated for summer 2022.

According the Hansen, “the look and feel” of the new venue will be “of a New England farm compound with a Princeton aesthetic.”

The property will be available for private affairs, conferences, seminars, meetings, corporate events, and charitable fundraisers.

The new space is “fulfillment of a lifelong dream,” said Hansen.

“I’ve been working my entire career to build this type of premier facility, and I cannot wait to serve our guests from Princeton and beyond next summer!”
