About This Home

Tucked away in the picturesque landscape of Far Hills, within an hour of NYC, this extraordinary country estate provides an exquisite blend of rustic charm and modern luxury. Set on 10+ gated acres, this private retreat offers natural beauty, architectural excellence, and refined craftsmanship. An extensive 2005 rebuild resulted in a stunning 6-bedroom residence. The spacious home, with two 1st-floor suites for guests, is defined by hand-crafted millwork and hardwoods that adorn the interior. The newly updated chef's kitchen features radiant-heated floors, state-of-the-art appliances, custom cabinetry, and a breakfast bar. The adjacent great room, crowned by soaring hand-hewn beams, serves as the heart of the home, with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and walls of windows that invite in natural light. The primary suite is a serene retreat, complete with a tower office with breathtaking views of the estate's gardens and rolling lawns. The deer-fenced property includes a pool, pool house, tennis court, reflecting pond with fountain and entertainment patios with a hot tub & outdoor kitchen. The carriage house presents a 4-car garage, office, gym, and full bath. This extraordinary home showcases an exterior of fieldstone, hand-split cedar roofing, copper gutters, fieldstone chimneys, and covered porches. Far Hills offers a coveted lifestyle with its equestrian heritage, scenic countryside, world-class golf courses, top-rated schools, fine dining, and access to NJ Transit.
