A gorgeous stair hall leads you into handsome Library with a decorative plaster ceiling, a black walnut bookcase and paneling provides an ideal retreat for quiet concentration or relaxation. The 2nd floor welcomes you with a grand center hall with a dramatic vaulted ceiling. Double cathedral door opens to the Master Suite that features one fully closeted wall, fireplace and Dressing Room with finished walk-up attic. Lower level Recreation/Game/Media Room features exposed beams and a huge fireplace with a wood burning stove to keep you warm and cozy on those chilly winter nights. A full bath, mud room, laundry and tunnel to a wine cellar completes the lower level. Of historical interest, during the prohibition years in the 20's, one of the largest illegal bootleg stills in NJ operated here. They used an escape tunnel to getaway from the police. A portion of this escape tunnel still exists and now leads to the wine cellar. Exceptional property with lush green land with breathtaking landscaping and a gorgeous Sylvan heated in-ground pool with hot tub is your own private retreat. Located on 1.6 acres, across the street from Woodwild Park in a prime residential neighborhood.
