Savor the quiet privacy, abundant space and boundless outdoor enjoyment that only country living can offer here at this 31-acre Hopewell Valley property, where a gracious home with grandly scaled rooms is the crown jewel. Walled gardens and relaid stone patios strike a perfect balance between refined and romantic, sure to leave weekend guests rejuvenated and green with envy. A barn and extra 4-bay garage open up a world of possibilities for buyers longing to pursue a passion, be it collecting cars or raising chickens. Enlarged, modernized and carefully maintained, as evidenced by a new cedar shake roof, the house and its adjoining guest cottage are absolutely one-of-a-kind with spaces to please every member of even the largest household, including in-laws. A sunroom lined with French doors is the height of elegance, while a wood-sheathed library with loft calls to mind a cozy British pub. A cathedral great room with a massive stone fireplace flows into an equally airy casual dining space, inviting everyone to gather together. With a sunny circular breakfast bay, the professionally equipped kitchen is also sized for a crowd. The floor plan includes plenty of areas that easily evolve with an ever-changing lifestyle. A skylit playroom transforms into an office by just swapping some furnishings. A separate bedroom wing hosts an au pair just as easily as holiday guests. Set up your gym in the finished basement or claim the cottage as a space devoted to wellness. There’s no limit to the flexibility or the opportunities for personalization. Bring the dreamy spa bathroom you envision to life in the primary suite, which is already a notch above the norm with two walk-in closets and a balcony. Another lovely suite and two bedrooms with a shared bath are just down the hall. More space than ever imagined, both inside and out, make this blissful bucolic property an exceptional value and a rare find!
