An amazing property...... adaptable to equestrian use.

Original house was built circa 1745. Major additions were added in the 1800's and again in the 1990's. Total square footage is +/- 3940.

The 1st Floor:

- A spectacular gourmet kitchen awaits you (including: Calcutta gold marble counters,
custom alder cabinets, Leibert built-in refrigerator, farm sink, and high end appliances)

- A large dining room with pellet stove, and an original beamed ceiling

- An oversize breakfast room

- Sun-filled living room with working fireplace

- 2 spacious main-floor bedrooms with custom woodworking and built-ins

- A private office

- Full marble and tile bath

- A 20x30 great room with massive working fireplace and built-ins.

Extensive custom molding woodwork and wainscoting is evident throughout the home, that integrates 'perfectly' with the original structure. It is a fabulous house for those who entertain either small or large groups!

The 2nd Floor:
A hidden staircase (behind the dining room fireplace) whisks you to a second floor private master suite with sitting room, new marble bath and nursery. Via the main center hall staircase, enter yet another gracious bedroom with adjoining updated bath.

Outside/Grounds:
Two porches and a patio area lead you to the 6.55 acres of mostly open pasture that can can be adapted for equestrian use. Across the black topped drive, find a two story garage accommodating up to 4 cars (with second story space access), plus, a nearby shed awaits all your equipment.

It's one of the most charming 'homes of character' in Hunterdon County, NJ!

ENTERTAIN IN STYLE ! .... A 'must visit' for those who enjoy the richness of the past, and the amenities of the present!

Schedule a visit .... You will not be disappointed!

Recent Improvements

Gourmet kitchen is 3 years old. Only the finest materials were utilized.

A new roof was installed on the house, garage, and shed in 10/2017

The master suite bath was renovated in 5/2017 in pale gray and white marble with a large walk in shower, a new vanity/sink, and toilet.

An approx 30 x 60 foot addition was added to the home in the 1990's. The current owner (a restoration contractor / renovator) then set forth to integrate this section to the other parts of the house with painstaking precision. The results are amazing.
