431 Millstone River Rd

Belle Mead, NJ 08502

All the makings of a modern homesteader's paradise: 3.62 acres extending to the Millstone River's edge. A picturesque house sitting high atop a bluff and inspired by pre-revolutionary dwellings dotting the area and outbuildings that perfectly complement the look and lifestyle. Put your feet up on the covered porch and take in the view of the meadow and upper pasture. Whether or not you choose to keep horses in the 2-stall barn or chickens in the coop, it's an idyllic scene. The house - the property's centerpiece - was a labor of love featuring antique brick, outside and in, along with wide-plank floors. Four fireplaces grace all the comfortable gathering spaces, but the fireside hearth of the cathedral-capped library is the most commanding. The kitchen is also warm and inviting with custom cherry cabinetry, a cooking island, and paneled Sub Zero fridge. Pella windows wrap around the adjoining breakfast room. The eastern wing of the house leading to the garage is indispensable with a bright,ready-for-anything loft/bedroom, handy side entry, and laundry room. Three additional upper bedrooms include the dormered master with a bead board-lined bath and walk-in closet.
