A true historic c1760 center hall colonial perched above the Raritan River awaits. Located in charming Califon, an idyllic and pastoral borough of Hunterdon County. The home greets you with wide plank hardwood flooring at the door and throughout (both pumpkin pine & chestnut). Be enchanted with thoughts of cozy days spent by fireplaces on each of the three floors. Owners actively used 4 of the 7 and they being conveyed "as is". The built-in library/den is roomy enough for a grand piano. A sunny kitchen leads to a large dining room that offers access to the rocking chair side porch where tales of large river fish may have been told while sipping tea. Jersey Winder stairs will take you to the basement and a regular set up to the three large bedrooms. You will be surprised to find a walk-in closet and a bonus sitting room in the master. Delight in the Victorian breakfast porch and the green house below.Both a 1 car garage and a reproduction 2 story saltbox barn are on property for storage/hobbies. The patio with a babbling water feature will be a favorite shady al fresco spot. Don't miss the lower garden or the carriage stone below. Owners state they have never had flood insurance nor water in the barn.Please be mindful of the historic construction and watch your head and step. Celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the declaration of independence (2026) in a home that predates it. Furnace new12/2023 Heirloom plants are blooming...come see the forget me nots.
