About This Home
Welcome to this exquisite country manor! Whether you are looking for your weekend getaway or full time residence, this is the home for you! This magnificent estate is less than 2 hours from NYC and yet worlds away. Words cannot express just how beautiful and unique this property is. Set on over 17 acres of wooded property, yet minutes from shopping, restaurants, parks, lakes and all that Sussex County has to offer. The wrap around porch encompasses three sides of this beautiful home with views of your magnificent land. The two story stone fireplace welcomes you upon entry, while the large living room and open kitchen are perfect for gatherings of all size yet cozy and comfortable. The second floor boasts a large loft overlooking the living room and fireplace (original plans have this area as 3rd bedroom and can easily be converted), a spacious primary suite with full bath, the main bath and another bedroom. All told, over 3000 sf of living space. The grounds include a lovely "potting shed", a fish pond complete with a bridge, gardens and plenty of parking. There are far too many details and amenities to list here, but whole house generator, central air and central vac just to name a few. Don't miss this opportunity to make your dreams come true. Come see for yourself!
