Saving an old house is no small feat. But when a home has been in the same family for 55 years with original sections dating back to 1842, it was nothing short of a labor of love for the designer-builder duo who transformed it. There are still hints of its history with some original beams and pumpkin pine flooring. But, with all new exquisite bathrooms, a gorgeous custom gourmet kitchen, a fantastic open dining area, and all new systems, it now feels more like new construction! The sweet covered side porch with mahogany decking leads into the foyer and great room with richly-stained floors and bright, white built-ins and a marble surround wood burning fireplace, provides the ultimate haven to kick back, relax and entertain. An attractive mudroom with laundry is adjacent with custom shelving, bench and a new powder room. Atrium doors from the great room slide open to a newly installed bluestone patio and luscious yard. Upstairs, owners can indulge in the master suite having a cathedral ceiling, a walk in closet outfitted with custom shelving with an en-suite bath offering cozy radiant heated flooring, a shower made for 2 and a sky-lit vessel tub for starry night pampering. A den or office space adjoins the second bedroom with a walk-in closet, creating a versatile space for work or play. The third bedroom w/en-suite bath offers radiant heated floors as well. Outside, the newly constructed 3-bay barn/garage having water and electric with a massive finished overhead attic storage measuring 40' x 30' is a pole barn and can easily adapt to adding more windows and doors. One bay is sheet rocked and could be used for as a studio or office finished space. An additional barn with new doors currently serves as the storage area for equipment. When adding onto the existing vintage building, a new basement was created, measuring 27' x 24", has enough head room for potentially finishing off. Located on a country quiet road, easy drive into Flemington and to Rt 202 for a commute into NY or Phila. This home is too impeccable to describe, the custom woodwork, high-end light fixtures, bathroom tile and fixtures, and so much more must be seen in person in order to appreciate the thought and talent that went into this special renovation. A few finishing touches are currently taking place, hence the delayed showing status. The entire house is getting a fresh coat of white paint too. Stay tuned for updated exterior photos.
