luxury real estate for sale Hopewell, United States

Totally custom with upscale country allure, inside and out, this flawlessly renovated home sits on 3.16 acres among properties of a similarly impressive size. The yard is beautifully landscaped, yet retains a natural feel with tall trees and woodsy views. A stone patio and four decks, two of them covered, invite you to relax and savor the setting. Elements like hardwood floors, handcrafted built-ins and multiple fireplaces, both gas and wood-burning, keep the of-the-moment interior rooted in tradition, while unexpected touches, such as rolling barn doors and designer tile, make every room completely one-of-a-kind. The chef’s kitchen is the perfect example of this deft balance with honed soapstone countertops, a furniture-style island and a statement hood. Appliances by Wolf and Sub-Zero are chef-approved. A separate wet-bar serves the airy living room and is also within arm’s reach of the cozy library. The primary suite occupies the quiet end of the main level and features a luxuriously appointed bathroom that conjures a mountaintop spa with a combination of rustic wood and a variety of smooth stone. Two upstairs bathrooms, each serving two of the four bedrooms, were not overlooked. Both are freshly renovated with a hint of sparkle. Just as much attention to detail went into the ruggedly refined walk-out lower level, where surround sound electronics hide within custom built-ins and two wine fridges straddle a second kitchen. A whole-house generator and two furnaces and A/C condensers, replaced in 2021, ensure comfort in any weather. This is the epitome of luxe country living!

This extraordinarily scenic property offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a paradise on a sprawling 35 acres of unencumbered land surrounded by prestigious homes less than 7 miles from Princeton. With its idyllic setting, so much is on offer here. Inimitably special, it features a breathtaking series of rapids and waterfalls along the wooded edge of the property, 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.
