Property Features

Here, you can have it both ways...you can easily come home on a Mid-town Direct train after a busy day in New York City to the gentrified lifestyle of Harding Township. There's no better place to enjoy more land, lower taxes, upscale living and great schools without sacrificing life in the 'big city.'

Set on 3.5 secluded acres of cul-de-sac property, this custom home is surrounded by mature shade trees and specimen plantings and circular drive, a bluestone terrace and walls, a gated spa, a firepit with stone patio, a waterfall, a pond and an enchanting stone footbridge over a woodland stream. Light and open spaces abound throughout, with an entry hall with skylight and views straight back through the living room to the rear property; living room with hardwood floor, fireplace and bank of windows to the terrace; a newly renovated kitchen with adjacent step-down breakfast area; great room with vaulted ceiling and beams, floor-to-ceiling atrium window and stone fireplace; formal dining room with three skylights and French doors to the terrace; family room with three skylights, hardwood floors, built-in bookcases and sliders to the terrace. An office with hardwood floors and adjacent reading library with high ceilings, solid oak floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and library ladder, plus  a generous full bath nearby. A first-floor master bedroom suite offers double California-style closet and deep walk-in California-style closet, plus a two-sided polished stone fireplace  that connects to a step-down sitting room with polished stone floors, vaulted ceiling, a wall of windows and door to the rear property.  The master bath offers polished stone on all the surfaces, a bay window over a jetted tub and frameless oversized shower. 
The second level is spacious, with generous walk-in cedar closet, laundry room, two additional bedrooms (one with vaulted ceiling and skylight) and full bath. The lower level offers fully carpeted recreation room with fireplace,  built-ins, bar, expansive exercise room, half bath, a fabulous billiard/game room with mud room and door to the rear property, plus storage galore. A three-car attached garage and second floor sunning deck complete the picture. Additional features include accent lighting throughout the home, slate roof, three-zone HVAC systems and a whole house fan with a 100-amp back-up generator for peace of mind. This special home is for the discerning buyer who wants the best of both worlds!
