Property description

A 7,174 sq. ft. converted mercantile train station that helped put Sussex County on the map! Set on 11+ farm-assessed acres, this property offers a perfect blend of historic charm and modern-day living. Featuring 8 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and a private-access in-law suite, it provides ample space and privacy for all. The massive rec room with a spiral staircase leads to a private loft, ideal for a studio or retreat space.

Original features, including 7 fireplaces, wide plank floors, parlor pocket doors, hand-hewn beams, extensive millwork, and a bread oven, remain intact, complemented by modern systems such as solar panels, a full-house generator, and an outdoor furnace.

Beyond the home, a serene and sustainable lifestyle awaits. Harvest fruit, vegetables, herbs, and medicinal plants from the organic gardens. Five fenced paddocks, a spring-fed pond, and water connections throughout the property make it ideal for homesteading and animal care. A 30x40 pole barn with electric, water, and a summer kitchen offers additional versatility.

The property also boasts unmatched turn-key bed & breakfast potential, where guests can immerse themselves in the tranquility of the estate while enjoying nearby attractions like ski resorts, golf courses, state parks, the Appalachian Trail, and the Delaware River.

A 3-car garage and circular driveway provide ample space for gatherings, while the attached greenhouse offers serene views of the landscaped pond gardens. This home strikes a perfect balance between history, innovation, and sustainability, inviting you to live a life of comfort, creativity, and self-sufficiency. Ready to support your homesteading dreams or entrepreneurial ventures.
