Property Description

One of Stockton's best kept secrets! This is a rare opportunity to own one of the most beautiful and pristine properties in town! This 19c Victorian is steeped in history and was originally, Pine HIll Farm and Hatchery,with the grounds extending on all sides. Resting high atop a hill, overlooking the town below, stands this extraordinary house with 4 outbuildings, stonewalls, and glorious four-season gardens and tall pines. All professionally groomed and cared for. It's hard to take your eyes off the exterior of this house, with its ornate gingerbread work true to the Victorian Era. There are carved railings, columns, corbels and even custom screen doors. There is a modern chef's kitchen, including Sub Zero refrigerator and ASKO dishwasher, built by a master craftsman, with cabinets, shelves & pantry plus FIVE STAR range, capped with a Boynton Company antique hood. The current owner added to this craftsmanship, by hiring Frenchtown artisan,Paul Mitchell to build impressive custom cabinets in the master bedroom, adding to storage. This is an absolutely stunning home that will not only delight local historians but draw a nod of approval from Queen Victoria herself! It is all about the creative use of space, light filled rooms and a masterful blend of old world craftsmanship and the modern ammentities. The level of sophistication is evident from the moment you step into the center foyer and hall. A hand carved baluster surrounded by intricate millwork and railings are conversation pieces in their own right. To top it off, along with the elegance and style of the main floors, both the third floor and lower level have equally as stunning Guest Quarters with independent kitchens and separate entrances. All of the rooms are harmonious in style and relation to the main floors. The top floor can easily be used for extra bedrooms for a large family. There are both front and back covered porches for rocking the summer evenings away or relaxing while enjoying brunch on the weekends. You can take an evening stroll into town or hike and bike the towpath for recreational pursuits. It is a dream location for those who love the idea of in-town living with an historic hilltop house to retreat to. There are seasonal views of the dynamic Delaware River and festivals and activities all year long! |
