Property Description
"Black River Farm" - A 52-acre preserved farm located in a bucolic section of Chester Township that is cherished for its country estates and equestrian properties. The land is sublime and surrounded by parkland, ensuring that the tranquility and natural beauty of this farm will remain in perpetuity. A long gravel driveway crosses fenced pastureland and a meandering brook to reach the main residence. This stately antique Colonial Revival was expanded in the mid-1800's and has been restored and renovated over the past twenty years by the current homeowners. Throughout the home, modern amenities have been thoughtfully blended with many of the original architectural details. The kitchen was expanded to include a large island, ample cabinetry, and a sitting area with a gas fireplace. A charming two-story cottage features two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, an eat-in kitchen, office and two covered porches. The cottage is also a legal rental property. Outbuildings and other amenities include an antique (circa 1890) two-story timber frame bank barn used for social events, a pool pavilion with an open lounge that adjoins an outdoor kitchen and spa, a detached three-car garage, an equipment barn with garage space for two more vehicles, a renovated corn crib, a chicken coop, a fieldstone spring house and a heated Gunite pool framed by a level lawn and bluestone patio. Throughout the farm, there are spellbinding views of this incredible setting.
