Historic Farmhouse with Barns and Pond on 24 Acres in Northwestern New Jersey

This farmhouse consists of the original single-story 1726 log cabin (see documentation below) and the attached 1830 two-story stone house.  The cabin has been preserved and is enclosed within a house structure that includes a master bedroom above and an attached kitchen/family room.  The log cabin is 15 x 15 and is the dining room for the house.  There are three fire places in the house, the one being the original large stone hearth for the cabin.

The house sits on 19 acres surrounded by woods and fields while across the street are an additional five acres containing a two-story barn.  The split lots provide considerable privacy to the residence from the road and neighboring properties.  There are multiple barns and outbuildings on the property, some with electricity. There is abundant wildlife on the grounds.

The house is historic (see attached documentation).  It consists of a restored 1726 log cabin with the original logs and large stone hearth. The cabin has been enclosed within a house structure that consists of an upstairs master bedroom and an attached modern kitchen and family room with a working fireplace.  The log cabin serves as a unique dining room.  This structure is attached to the 1830 two-story stone house with a living room and den on the first floor and two bedrooms and bath on the second.  There are two sets of stairs to the second floor.  There is a basement under the house and a attached two car garage is attached to the stone house.

The property has a stream running through it to both parcels.  The main parcel has a pond and a dam with a 6 foot waterfall. Adjacent to the dam is a two-story spring house with a working water wheel. The spring house has living space and a bathroom.  The property has a circular driveway with considerable stone work in the from yard (see photos).

This property is in need of repair.  Some photographs show the main house 10 years ago.
