Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of history in Montgomery Township. The home is being sold as-is, and features a pre-revolutionary war home with major renovation work. While the house foundation and fireplace hearth foundation have been replaced, the old stone interior remains, lending an air of historic authenticity. First-floor flooring is made of recycled hickory wide boards, while the 52' x 16' addition on the back of the house boasts a slab floor covered in ceramic tile. Plumbing has been upgraded, and the 200 Amp panel and all wiring are copper.

The FWA unit itself is a heat pump with 13.5 SEER, and the HVAC equipment is less than 10 years old. Windows are all E-glass, and the siding is cedar clapboard. The vegetable garden is fenced and has been all organic for over 40 years, while the ice house workshop foundation, circa 1849, boasts new walls and roof as of 2010. The workshop overlooks Rock Brook and sits on the former site of a sawmill and gristmill, still evident below the ice house. Rock Brook is stocked with trout every spring by NJ, and the brook itself is the only clean water C-1 watershed in the area. This is truly a unique and exceptional property that must be seen to be appreciated.
