Mid century modern meets 1820s farmhouse meets the privacy and space everyone is seeking after a year of being cooped up. This home delivers. On nearly 30 acres on the Amwell Valley Trail System (AVTA), this farmhouse with mid century architectural design was built for entertaining. Floor to ceiling windows across the back of the house provide amazing views of your domain. Woods, babbling brook, open grassy fields, it's a nature lover's dream. The home was built by a former Fortune 100 executive, so entertaining was an integral factor in the design by Robert Hillier. The center of the home features the vintage 1820s farmhouse stone walls, with vaulted ceilings capped by glass skylights at the peak, washing the room with natural sunlight. This structure belonged to the owner's family, and they wanted to incorporate it into their new living space. The stone farmhouse is flanked by wings of bedrooms and living areas where floor to ceiling glass let you admire the outdoors in the comfort of your home. Four bedrooms and three full baths total. A practical in-law au pair suite in one wing offers privacy if you need it. Two other bedrooms are in the second wing, and the main bedroom suite on the second floor is accessed by the spiral stairs. A highly functional eat in kitchen features stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, double oven, granite countertops, loads of storage in full sized upscale cabinetry, and a side by side full refrigerator and full sized freezer. Cozy up to the wood burning fireplace in the winter and admire the snow falling gently outdoors. Youngsters can escape "the adults" in a loft accessible by a ladder. A full basement, partially finished, allows for ample storage. Anyone who has had to put entertaining on the back burner this past year, plan away! Gatherings of friends and family can spill out onto the back patio overlooking the woods. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail on one of two paver patios off the back of the home. Equestrians - ride your horse right off your property onto roughly 80 miles of AVTA trails. Put firepits outside to roast marshmallows, bring your musician friends, host jam sessions and gaze at a magnificent sky loaded with stars. Many a tent and catered outdoor event was hosted here.
