About This Home

As of August 2021

Welcome to "Fernwood"... Off the beaten path near Hopewell in East Amwell Township, turn down the long private drive shared with only one other house and arrive at this storybook setting. Woods with trails reveal beautiful rock formations and a trail to a scenic creek cutting through this 11+ acre property. The multiple decks, screened porch, and heated pool instantly set the holiday mood in this private setting.. Inside, the expanded floor plan reveals a Great Room with something for everyone: music, cards, TV, or reading by the fireplace with a wood stove insert to keep things toasty. Telescoping doors open this space to the large front deck. The dine-in kitchen opens to the back deck and the pool adjacent to a dining room large enough for everyone to gather. On the main level, find two bedrooms and a home office. The primary suite is just the right size with a private bathroom and sliders to the deck and pool. Another bathroom is in the hall. Downstairs, in the walk-out lower level, there’s another bedroom, a full bath, lounge, and a second home office, making it perfect for summer living!
