Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of history in Montgomery Township. The home is being sold as-is, and features a pre-revolutionary war home with major renovation work.

The vegetable garden is fenced and has been all organic for over 40 years, while the ice house workshop foundation, circa 1849, boasts new walls and roof as of 2010. The workshop overlooks Rock Brook and sits on the former site of a sawmill and gristmill, still evident below the ice house. Rock Brook is stocked with trout every spring by NJ, and the brook itself is the only clean water C-1 watershed in the area. This is truly a unique and exceptional property that must be seen to be appreciated.
