Southern Jersey Country Home With Recreational Acres

Description

Welcome to your secluded country estate. Beginning with a nearly ½ mile drive down the private drive, you can let the stresses of the day melt away into the acres of peace and quiet. The completely updated home sits atop the hill and offers amazing front- and back-porch views. From the minute you get close to the home, you will notice that maintenance and pride of ownership have been top priorities for these owners. Entering the home, you are greeted by a modern, open-concept layout. The living room has 18’ vaulted ceilings that complement the stone fireplace. The kitchen is well laid out with great cabinet space, quartz counters, and a marble backsplash. The laundry and master bedroom are both on the main floor of this 1.5-story pristine home. The master bath, like much of the home, has undergone a complete remodel, and wow, does it impress. A massive glass shower, soaking tub, double sinks with endless counter space, and direct access outside to the covered hot tub pretty much cover everyone’s wish list items. The kitchen gives access to the back deck and patio. This entire area is designed to take in the beauty and peacefulness of the property. The covered patio will keep you dry during a summer rain, and the top deck overlooks the stocked pond and valley of planted fruit and hardwood trees. Back in the home, the upstairs offers 2 large bedrooms and a third massive room that is currently being used as a guest room, but could be a family room or playroom for the kids. Fresh paint, recent carpet, and a tastefully updated full bath complete the upstairs of this home. The walkout basement is large and awaits the new buyer's dreams. There is plenty of room for an exercise room, a family room, or a huge man cave. The land includes approximately 29 CRP acres that generate income and provide excellent wildlife habitat. Established food plots are currently in place throughout the property and have proven to attract some impressive deer to the land. The current owner has spent a great deal of time and money preparing the land with optimal access and proper food plot locations. The trail system offers nearly 2 miles of hiking and UTV trails, perfect for evening wildlife watching. The stocked pond will provide countless hours of enjoyment for the new owners and their guests. A significant feature of the property is the large pole barn offering more than 5,000 square feet of under-roof storage. The building includes a concrete work area, a full lean-to, and an attached approximately 20' x 27' area that may be suitable for a variety of uses such as living quarters or office space. This building lends itself well to the large acreage. Storing equipment, livestock feed, and recreational vehicles will be no issue with this large structure. Additional improvements include an open-front shed configured currently for equestrian use. This area includes a feeding station, stall space, and an outdoor lot. The corral and fencing are welded steel and will stand maintenance-free for decades to come. It is rare to see such care and investment put into livestock facilities. Water is run to the shed, and the gates are hung. The only thing missing is your animals. This is simply a once-in-a-lifetime property. The current owners have completed all the expensive home updates. The land has been tirelessly cared for and developed into high-end hunting and recreational acres. A huge pole barn for all your storage needs and possible business ventures. Established livestock facilities complete with water and a welded steel lot all come together in a very private setting that is harder to find every day. This one won’t last long.
