From the cedar shakes to the custom doors, from the graceful roof lines to the charming front entrance, this enchanting house will meet your every need. Designed and built by its current owner, you would be hard-pressed to find a more welcoming home --- even the garden shed is delightful! Bluestone paths lead to the inviting terrace overlooking Stony Brook. Simply purchase your fishing license, and dinner is served! Relax in your sunken stone hot tub, enjoy the water views and the masterfully crafted stone wall of your house, and relax. The front door invites you to enter, and, when you do, the incredible wood floor and spacious entry lead to simply wonderful spaces. The Great Room is a knockout-- having an impressive stone fireplace, lots of windows, and glass doors opening to the terrace, with views of mature trees and the sweet brook. Chef's kitchen is a real dream, with recessed drawers, cabinetry, and granite counters. Virtually everything is created and crafted for this special house. The primary bedroom is on the main level, complete with sybaritic bath and custom walk-in closet. The other three bedrooms are on the second level with a hall bath. Finished basement provides a large luxurious and convenient place for exercise or play. This is truly one special house in Hopewell Township, close to the dog park and equestrian center.

R100
Residential District
The purpose of this section is to recognize the existing pattern of detached dwellings, to preserve environmentally critical areas as identified in the adopted master plan and the natural resources inventory, and to allow the township to provide a variety of housing, including lower income housing in the identified areas. The selection of dwelling unit types in the R-5 District should provide a balance of housing choices attractive to all income and age segments of the community as part of the township's fair share of the regional housing needs. The criteria are intended to provide flexibility in the design of developments to aid in reducing housing costs, encouraging lower income housing, allowing construction to avoid environmentally critical areas, and removing residences from busy highways and other potential nuisances created by noise and visual blight.
