Property Description
This stunning mountain retreat is the perfect oasis for outdoor enthusiasts and gardeners alike. Situated on just over 5 acres of land, this historic home boasts 2 bedrooms and 2 baths with a 2008 addition that seamlessly blends colonial charm with modern amenities. As is sale
Take in the beauty of the expansive property, which includes a section of Rock Brook running through it, a large organic garden complete with deer protections, and a grazing pasture. The icing on the cake? The restored original ice house, now converted into a workspace with a breathtaking view of Rock Brook.
Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of history in Montgomery Township. The home is being sold as-is, and features a pre-revolutionary war home with major renovation work. While the house foundation and fireplace hearth foundation have been replaced, the old stone interior remains, lending an air of historic authenticity.
First-floor flooring is made of recycled hickory wide boards, while the 52' x 16' addition on the back of the house boasts a slab floor covered in ceramic tile. Plumbing has been upgraded, and the 200 Amp panel and all wiring are copper. HVAC is state-of-the-art, with a propane Peerless Purefire boiler at 95.2% AFUE, supplying domestic hot water and a hot water coil in the FWA heat pump unit. The FWA unit itself is a heat pump with 13.5 SEER, and the HVAC equipment is less than 10 years old.
Windows are all E-glass, and the siding is cedar clapboard. The vegetable garden is fenced and has been all organic for over 40 years, while the ice house workshop foundation, circa 1849, boasts new walls and roof as of 2010. The workshop overlooks Rock Brook and sits on the former site of a sawmill and gristmill, still evident below the ice house.
Rock Brook is stocked with trout every spring by NJ, and the brook itself is the only clean water C-1 watershed in the area. This is truly a unique and exceptional property that must be seen to be appreciated.
