A dream retreat: A picture perfect renovated 3 bedroom cottage with separate renovated outbuilding in an idyllic setting. Cross over the natural spring stream as you enter the property along a private driveway. Exquisitely renovated and filled with light from the large, energy efficient windows, this is a peaceful home in a magical setting. Enter through the covered porch at the back of the house into a compact kitchen with newer appliances and hardwood work tops. A dining room is central to the house and is open to the sitting room, from which you can watch the season change whilst keeping warm in front of the wood burning fireplace. Two bedrooms and a hall bathroom with a stand shower complete this level. Upstairs a large bedroom has high ceilings, windows on three sides and access to the attic. There is an unfinished basement in this building. The ‘salt haus’ comprises a light filled entry foyer/sitting area with wood floors, a large closet and a powder room. A barn door leads through to the salt cave, an inspirational retreat away from it all used for rest and rejuvenation. With high ceilings this room has many potential uses; simply remove the loose salt from the floor to reveal ceramic tiles and benefit from radiant underfloor heat. The current owner uses the salt haus as a wellness business, however there are many possibilities for its use. Close to both Princeton and Hopewell for restaurants, shopping, theater and more, but this is a retreat where you can be away from it all, set in over 4.6 acres and surrounded by preserved land on 3 sides. House your chickens in the coop and enjoy the fire pit from the covered porch at the back of the house and relax into nature. Septic was installed for 6 bedrooms home in 2015. No closets in the bedrooms. Fireplace believed to be working but sold as is.

The purpose of these districts is to implement the goals, objectives and principles of the 2002 Master Plan relative to protecting environmentally sensitive areas, recognizing development capacity limitations established by natural resource capabilities, maintaining the rural character and providing for sustainable development. These districts have been designed to comprehensively address the interrelated goals of protecting groundwater quantity and quality, maintaining surface water resources, conserving the scenic rural character, addressing limiting soil conditions and promoting continued agricultural use opportunities, while also providing a range of development opportunities that offer alternatives for the landowner.
