BEST AND FINAL Tuesday August 12th at 3 PM!!! Welcome to the Stone House Farmette – a rare 12-acre retreat that seamlessly blends 18th-century charm, artisan design, and modern resort-style living. Just 7 minutes from downtown Princeton, 1 hour from NYC, and 45 minutes to Philadelphia, this historic homestead offers a lifestyle of beauty, function, and legacy. Originally built in 1730 and lovingly restored by a chef and designer duo, the 4-bedroom farmhouse is both refined and deeply livable. The great room anchors the home with two original fireplaces and golden pine floors, while a sunroom offers tranquil views of the meadow and spring-fed pond. Designed with entertaining in mind, the home effortlessly hosts both intimate and grand gatherings. The chef’s kitchen accommodates two European-style tables for up to 16 guests, while the garden-side dining area features raw-edge seating for 12 beneath the trees. From candlelit dinners to sun-soaked lunches, this property invites connection and celebration. Upstairs, the redesigned primary suite includes hand-applied plaster walls and a serene, spa-style bath. A flexible adjacent studio is ideal for an office, nursery, or creative retreat. Outdoors, the resurfaced saltwater pool (2023) is surrounded by perennial gardens, resort-style landscaping, and multiple gathering areas. A wisteria-draped entry leads to the chef’s garden with peach trees, raised beds, and a custom outdoor kitchen featuring a raw-edge table and cauldron grill. A cedar chicken coop, six fenced paddocks, and a large barn with stables and a hayloft expand your homesteading or equestrian vision. The 3-car garage includes event-ready refrigeration and generous storage. The spring-fed pond is a thriving wildlife sanctuary—home to turtles, beavers, herons, bass, and migrating songbirds. Enjoy skating in winter, fishing in summer, and sipping persimmon cider in the fall. A native meadow restoration is underway, with flowering fields arriving in 2026. A second entrance on Province Line Road offers future possibilities for guest huts or glamping setups. Recent infrastructure upgrades include new HVAC (2024), hot water heater (2024), electric service (2024), septic system (2022), and a freshly laid gravel European-style driveway with bridge access. This is more than a home—it’s a place of retreat, reflection, and legacy for generations to come.
Celebrating its antiquity while incorporating the many modern comforts of today, Stone House Farm is the picture perfect country property that you've been waiting for! Sited on 11+ acres and accessed down a lane that passes through small paddocks, revealing the pond, the barn, the pool and culminating at a 3-car-garage, this Colonial-era farmhouse dates back centuries. Highlights are a one-time kitchen addition with Wolf range, Sub-zero fridge, and attractive glass cabinetry, while an old sleeping porch has been recently converted on two floors to include critical space on both levels. The first floor embraces the outdoors with rooms opening to a covered porch, a bluestone patio, and a year-round sunroom. Interior walls with exposed stone, beamed ceilings, and wide plank floorboards are consistent details that embrace the home's heritage. Two staircases conveniently lead to the second floor. In addition to the 3 room master suite, two additional bedrooms and a laundry room (which was once the 4th bedroom) use two additional baths. The location is perfect as well, close to the restaurants and great coffee in Hopewell Borough, and only 5 miles from downtown Princeton! This property is easy to show by appointment only and a quick closing is possible. Offering also includes Tax ID numbers 06-00040 02-00006 24-Q0121 and 06-00040 02-00006 25-Q0121.
