2.5 beautiful mountain acres located on the corner of Stony Brook Rd and Mountain Church. Owner says old records show a home was built in the 1600's but the current tax records only go back to the 1800's. Either way, it has stood for a long time in the Sourland Mountains. New 3500.00 well pump, 4 bedrooms, 1 bath, nice LR, DR, eat in kitchen, office/bonus room. Home needs some work but the possibilities are to build your own dream home on this spot, or renovate this wonderful old farmhouse. Easy to show. Bring all offers! Close to Princeton and down town Hopewell Boro.
