760 ROSEMONT RINGOES ROADSTOCKTON, NJ 08559

Just a few turns from New Jersey's last covered bridge, 89 inspired acres roll out like a pastoral dream in the heart of Hunterdon County. This is not your average farmstead. This is a place where traditions are honored, animals are well-housed, and there's a proper barn just for parties complete with a barrel-vaulted ceiling and a bar. The land itself is shaped by a network of fenced paddocks, dry lots, and barns that still serve their original purpose. One is ready for horses with four stalls, a heated tack room, and a hayloft that swallows up to 1,200 bales. Another once ran as a dairy barn, now brimming with potential, and there's even a proper chicken coop. At the center of it all, the 19th-century farmhouse has been added upon and transformed into a place of pure comfort and grace, warmed by two gas fireplaces and the stories told around them. The kitchen, with its oversized island, hearth, and casual dining nook, is where the hours melt away. The great room, with its soaring ceiling and shuttered interior windows, is equal parts music hall and quiet escape. The living room spills out onto a wide bluestone patio. The dining room still knows how to host a holiday, and the upstairs main bedroom is thoughtfully tucked away from the others, one of which hides a cedar closet. There's laundry upstairs, a sauna below, and a stone-walled nook that all but begs to become a wine cellar. Elsewhere on the property are surprises that stretch this estate beyond a single narrative: a garage with a finished game room above, a storybook cottage-style apartment, another two-bedroom apartment with a loft, and a studio with its own bathroom. Even the pets have their own fenced ¾-acre patch to keep them safe. In a world that moves too fast, this is a place that knows how to slow down while keeping farm life humming. Please note the bedroom counts include the guest house (2 bdrms/2 full baths) and the cottage (1 bdrm/1 full bath)
