About this House

Peaceful living between the country and the city. A great place to raise kids with four schools (K-12) located within a 3 mile radius. Or a great place to live quietly alone but with plenty of guest bedrooms. 1.6 acres of mixed wooded and open lawn. Along the back property line are apple trees and pear trees. The deer put on a show out back and the fruit keeps them away from the big flower beds out front (south) of the house. Crocuses, daylilies, iris', daffodils, clematis, azaleas, rhododendrons, roses and a flowering pink dogwood tree will start blooming soon. The feeling of wide open spaces is what I get sitting on the outside back deck on the north side of the house, cooled by the shade of the Norway Maple trees. Across Sunset Road to the south is a small creek that is preserved land never to be built upon, making for a great view out the front window.
The house is ranch style having 1275 sq ft on main floor and another 1275 sq ft of unfinished basement area with 8' ceilings in both. Please refer to the pictures attached. The floors are hardwood throughout the house. A large bow window overlooks the front yard from the Living Room, which also contains a Franklin-style wood burning stove that is a blessing when it gets cold outside. The house is serviced by natural gas and 150 amp electric service. Water is supplied by a private well, recently brought up to code with a new submersible pump. The well has never run dry. There is an onsite septic tank system that was upgraded last summer with a new distribution box. Heating is by hot-water baseboard heaters. House has central AC and whole-house attic fan. Please come by and see it.

    "The Sourland Mountain area is a perfect place to live if you love nature and privacy without loosing the feeling of community. Many hiking trails and quiet areas, yet only minutes from restaurants in Princeton and Hopewell, and about and hour to Philly and NYC. Schools are excellent, and the neighbors are amazing (and not as pretentious as Princeton)!!!!!!!! I couldn't think of a better place to live! I love it here!"

    "Anyone rating Montgomery Twp. schools at less than Excellent doesn't know what they're talking about. Also, there is a high density of private schools of the highest quality (well, and price...) in the immediate area. This is a spotlessly clean suburban community boarding on some of the most attractive rural areas in the mid-atlantic. Only real negative is lack of public transportation."
