Property Description
With the bluffs along the Delaware River as a backdrop,"Far View Farm Estate" is a perfect name for a place that has spectacular views. Located on over 10 acres, "Far View" features a big, white sprawling house that sits behind white four rail fencing and is accessed by a winding, gated driveway that circles in front of the entryway. Inside, the foyer is two-stories in height w/ a dramatic handmade circular staircase. All the floors on the 1st & 2nd levels are planked cypress. To the right is the first of 2 studies that has cherry, raised panel walls, built-in's & FP w/ marble. The study opens to the LR which has an authentic revolutionary war era FP that belonged to Noah Doggett, one of the principle leaders of the Boston Tea Party. The room has a large wet bar w/ granite tops, built-in cabinetry & chair rail over wainscoting. To the left of the foyer is the DR. Not every house has two kitchens, but "Far View" does! The main "Designer" kitchen is 43'x28' and has exposed beams, soapstone countertops, slate flrs, Alder cabinets w/ contrasting color wood & appliances that include names like Wolf, Sub-Zero & Miele. The breakfast rm has vaulted, beamed ceiling & wide plank floors. The kitchen goes on & includes a cozy 20x13 sitting rm w/ gas FP & a 57'x23' light drenched sunroom w/ walls of windows & skylights. Another wing of the house is reached through the DR and like the rest of the house, has pocket doors. A wide hallway leads to an office w/ wet bar, fridge, ice maker, Cherry built-ins, bay window and wrought iron spiral staircase to the 2nd flr. The great room is 30'x27' and has a stone FP, cathedral ceiling and projection, drop-down movie screen. The 2nd full "entertainment" kitchen is in the great rm. The master BR suite has cathedral beamed ceilings, built-ins, huge dressing rm w/ 8 closets! The master bath has quarry tile flooring, double sinks in granite counter top, enclosed shower and jet tub. 4 addl BR's are on the 2nd flr as are 2 magnificent full baths. One is never bored at "Far View"! Step outside and to enjoy the 22'x50' in-ground heated pool or custom sport court. There is a 45'x30' slate patio with built-in grill & fire pit. A 6-stall barn behind the house includes tack rm & hay loft. There are multiple paddocks and an enormous riding ring. One outbuilding is a 2 car machine garage and another a 4 car heated/AC garage has full carriage house above.
