Property Description
Enjoy this secluded home/office/studio with in-law suite just minutes from 5 major commuter routes and just moments from the train station (close enough for convenience, far enough to not be bothered by it). With a Pocono's setting (surrounded by 10 acres of preserved, open-space woodlands and a babbling brook, this home has up to 7 bedrooms and over 3900 sq. ft of living space. The nearly 1000 sq ft great room (built in 2002) has a commercial use zoning variance for a home based small business or convert it to a spacious in-law suite (bedroom, full-bath, 900 sq ft living room) ? or possible apartment rental. The property is two full lots of almost acre each and is sub-dividable. A "Salt-box" style, custom designed house (featured in Architectural Digest 1976 as a ground-breaking Passive Solar home) with huge fireplace in the center of home and energy efficient heater vents, make this a great warmth generating and gathering centerpiece. The south face of this building on first floor is mostly highly insulated floor-to-ceiling windows/sliders and offer natural light throughout the year. The new kitchen (built in 2009) is really the heart of this unique house. Oversize island for entertaining, expanded preparation area, granite counter-tops, stainless appliances, pantry and extra storage areas, make this open to living room space durable, comfortable, and impressive. Formal dining room with front facing extra large bay window and gorgeous chandelier is large enough to seat 10 to 12 comfortably while accommodating a B.a.b.y. grand piano. The finished basement has higher ceilings, an artsy floor, and fun decor with a separate storage/mechanical space (new energy efficient heater 2005, central air 2008, air systems 2006, 2016, and full freezer). Laundry made easy with a 9' x 9' laundry room with front-loading washer & dryer, utility sink, storage shelving, wall ironing board, clothing rack (built-in), and plenty of room for full-size folding table. Outside are two storage sheds (one for wood and one for equipment), a Kohler generator with underground 500-gallon propane tank, and Invisible Fence for pet owners. Parking up to 10 vehicles in the parking lot.
