Feel worlds away at Oakhill, a pastoral paradise spread out over 10 acres, nestled in historic Griggstown overlooking the D & R Canal. Relax in uttermost tranquility and privacy amid a breathtaking mix of distant meadows, rolling lawns, rose and boxwood gardens, even a private pond stocked with largemouth bass - this is a truly beautiful canvas ready to be refined and turned into your dream property! A light-filled 13-room Colonial home has been sited to take full advantage of the natural landscape, which flows as far as the eye can see, surrounded by the charms of a wisteria and holly-framed patio, a 19th century barn and matching chicken coop, and a guest cottage. A grass path, edged in peonies, leads to an in-ground swimming pool, which sparkles in the sun. Expansive acreage with specimen plantings allows you to create your own corner of peace and beauty: organic farm, equestrian center, potential subdivision, or the ultimate retreat. The pleasures of Princeton and its famous University are just minutes away. Princeton mailing address. .. Come see for yourself! The bedroom and bath count include the main house and guest cottage. Property is being sold strictly as-is and property will not be subdividable.
