About this home

Five decades of superb stewardship by the present owner transformed a late 1800s New Jersey farmhouse and much of its 47.53 acres into a country estate of comfort and beauty. The center hall and living room have rich dentil molding and wide board pumpkin pine floors that continue through most of the formal rooms. The pine paneled library opens to the dining room with French doors leading to a brick terrace. A south facing sunroom and adjacent family room overlook the apple orchard. A superbly designed kitchen and butler's pantry make light of entertaining. Impeccably maintained, the 6-bedroom manor house,fully equipped pool house, tennis court, barn and clustered outbuildings offer a generosity of invitingly handsome and functional spaces Well-tended landscaping, majestic evergreen borders, a flourishing apple orchard and views of rolling meadows make this an exceptional country property just 5 miles from the center of culturally-rich Princeton and mid-way between New York and Philadelphia.
