Additional Information

Located on one of Basking Ridge’s prettiest streets, with sweeping estate properties and towering trees, this superb custom-built home offers prospective buyers many amenities, both inside and out. A cedar-shake roof, transom windows, vaulted ceilings, and true-divided light windows are just some of the appurtenances that make this house special. The entrance foyer with two coat closets and inlaid hardwood floor sets a gracious tone. Following a traditional center-hall configuration, the dining room, with chair rail and crown molding, and the elegant living room, whose fireplace wood mantel is embellished with old-style decorative milling, flank the hall.  The impressive double-story family room is large and light, featuring a wood-burning fireplace with raised hearth and stone chimney at one end, and built-in cabinets at the other. The wood-paneled first-floor library with a marble fireplace offers a quiet sanctuary, with one of the home’s two powder rooms near-by.

Enjoy the walled garden and park like setting of this 2+ acre property from the two South American ipé decks or the wonderful New England-style screened porch.  Offering a wealth of extras, such as an irrigation system for the rear plantings , multi-zone security, as well as an oversized 3 car garage, this lovely home, boasting a Far Hills mailing address and the highly-rated Basking Ridge schools, is hard to beat.
