Willow Springs Farm: A Classic Estate on 23+ Acres
Magnificent views of the Somerset Hills surround Willow Springs Farm, a Georgian Colonial estate in Mendham Township's scenic Roxicitus Valley. This expansive equestrian property is sited on over 23 open, level and partially wooded acres; the purchase price also includes an 11-acre undeveloped lot. Originally built in 1935 for August Belmont IV of horse racing fame, this impeccably updated estate home showcases a variety of graceful design elements from that period.
In addition to the classic all-brick mansion, there is a detached three-car heated garage with an inviting two-bedroom apartment upstairs; a three-stall horse barn offering three heated parking bays, farm manager's heated office and powder room, beautifully finished second-story entertainment loft, an adjoining wood paneled office with a powder room and expansive views over the fields; a pickleball court, in-ground pool, entertainment-friendly pool house; separate built-in hot tub and small pond.
A long drive leads to the main house and formal garden centered by a water fountain before branching off to the dependencies. All the hallmarks of traditional Georgian Colonial architecture are displayed in the mansion's covered, columned entry, all-brick exterior and black shutters.
Measuring nearly 6,100 square-feet, the chic layout with 5 fireplaces, 2 converted to gas logs, presents an ideal balance of elegant and casual gathering spaces. Designed to optimize the pastoral views, two enclosed porches, covered veranda and expansive bluestone terrace are tranquil respites for dining and relaxation.
Interior highlights such as hardwood floors, crown moldings, French doors and built-ins lend character to the flowing floor plan. Among the principal rooms are a designer kitchen lined in custom white cabinetry, elegant formal living and dining rooms featuring classic trim, a sunny fireside family room, and a memorable foyer fitted with uniquely-patterned hardwood floors. Five spacious bedrooms include a sophisticated master suite connecting to dual spa-inspired baths with marble detailing. The home has a total of six full baths and three powder rooms. The lower level is complete with 1200 bottle climate-controlled wine cellar, recreation room, gymnasium and powder room.
Outside, the refreshing pool complex is privately situated on the property and served by a fabulous pool house. It contains a huge gathering space anchored by a stone fireplace and designed with a wood-paneled cathedral ceiling, full bath, wet bar and laundry. The three-stall horse barn is enhanced by fenced areas for grazing and riding, while the handsome office on the second floor is perfect for remote work situations. Close to the main house is the detached three-car garage offering a beautifully updated second story apartment for guests or staff. This rare estate property is centrally located in Morris County and has a Far Hills mailing address.
