About This Home
As of September 2019Simply unpack and begin enjoying this park-like retreat. If you like the charm of "historic" (built in the 1700s) with all the modern conveniences (renovation in 2004), then you'll love this property! Facing the D&R Canal, three different buildings offer you have multi-generational living, a weekend retreat or an executive retreat. The main house features 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, a living room with 2 fireplaces with unobstructed views of the water. Commercial kitchen with double Viking stoves, granite counters, brick herringbone floors, butler pantry, family room with a 3rd fireplace, and a formal dining room with 3 walls of windows to enjoy your private backyard and Mother Nature. The 2nd floor has a master suite with completely renovated upscale en suite full bathroom complete with claw foot tub. 3 more bedrooms, a loft, laundry room and a walk in closet. Authentic hand hewn beams and amazing views from every window make this home spectacular. The "Carriage House" has similar finishes and features one bedroom with an adjoining office/nursery, a full kitchen, full bathroom and an open floor plan living/dining room with a fireplace. Stacked front loading washer/dryer. French doors open to a paver patio overlooking the swimming pool. Plenty of storage in the full basement. Use this building as either an executive lodging (bedroom and office can be closed off from the rest of the house) while guests stay in the main house, or for parents (rancher style living) or adult children. The piece de resistance is in the converted Barn. The $100k theater, the game area, kitchenette, full bathroom and 2 car attached garage on the first floor. Second floor features another full bath, a billiard area and more space to be used for group gatherings - leisure or corporate. Or set up your band for rehearsals. The 3 buildings sit on 3+ acres which back to a butterfly sanctuary and 10 Mile Run / Griggstown Nature Preserve. Wildlife abounds at this home. Nicely landscaped, plenty of outdoor entertaining space, parking for 10+ cars. It's beautiful and multi-functional. The current owner has completely "teched-out" the property - Sonos in the main house and piped out to the pool, nest technology, electronic keypads, etc. Lovingly and well maintained, it's simply waiting for the next owners.
