Property Description
A long driveway framed by evergreens introduces this Colonial with origins tracing back to 1764. Timeless appeal is the moment you pull onto the 105 acre grounds. The first brick home in Somerset County, built by Cornelius Ten Broeck. The original four-over-four structure features wood beams and wide board floors, party sized dining and living rooms, with his and her studies, and six upstairs bedrooms. Front and back Dutch doors connect the entrance hallway with the circular driveway and brick patio for entertaining. The East Wing was renovated in the 1970's with kitchen and true breakfast room opening to the outside. A bedroom and bath are on the second floor and ideal for in-laws or help. The West Wing includes a large master bedroom suite with walk-in dressing closet above a sun-filled family room. The pool is easily accessed from here. Grounds include a carriage house garage building, 3 pole barns, 4 outbuildings and several paddocks. (Photos taken prior to tenants occupancy.)
