This extraordinarily scenic property offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a paradise

miles from Princeton. With its idyllic setting, so much is on offer here. Inimitably special, it

22 acres of pasture, hedgerows, grasslands, and herbaceous plants, and approximately 13
acres of forest. There are remnants of an original 19th-century farmstead, adding to its allure. Stocked with trout, Rock Brook flows along the parcel's west end and there is a man-made pond
that lines the long, gated gravel driveway in the center. This property is neither preserved nor in
a conservation easement. However, it is in a wildlife and conservation management program,
which encourages diversity of wildlife of native plants and animals and the control of invasive
species. This contract could be transferred to the buyer, and it does compensate. The
opportunity exists to build two houses if a compound is on your wish list. Or you could subdivide
the land and sell off some of the acreage to another builder, offsetting the initial investment. Whether your dream is to farm, enjoy nature, keep loved ones close, or all of the above,
properties of this caliber are a rarity and should not be overlooked. The Hopewell Fault, a geological formation, creates the series of rapids & waterfalls along the wooded area of the property. Truly an idyllic setting to build your dream home!
