WILLOW POND FARM 

Willow Pond Farm in Tewksbury is a circa 1803 Colonial sited on 25 farmland-assessed acres with a converted barn/guest house, spring fed pond, in-ground pool and several outbuildings. The traditional center hall layout offers 12 rooms in the main house, with four bedrooms, four full and two half baths. This stone and clapboard residence includes a 1940s breakfast room and 1950s sunken living room additions. Many original details such as random width wood floors, beamed ceilings and period moldings enhance the Early American feel of this historic property.

The true center hall entry leads to a back door revealing a stone terrace. Some of the gathering spaces on the first floor include the formal living room anchored by a fireplace, a den with stone fireplace, a stone-walled conservatory and a dining room featuring bucolic views of the pond and open acreage. A classic Colonial color palette is used in the kitchen, which adjoins a sunlit breakfast room. Nearby are a mud room, half bath and office. Upstairs, the master bedroom features a fireplace designed with a tile surround and wood mantel. There are two walk-in closets and staircase leading to den as well as a full, private bath. This level also has three more bedrooms, each with its own full bath.

The guest house at Willow Pond Farm is a converted barn characterized by many striking architectural details. Entered through a foyer fitted with barn siding and wainscoting, the first floor reveals an oversized family room, a home office, a hooking room, library, half bath, small bedroom, sitting room, workshop and laundry room. More living space is found upstairs in the guest house’s dramatic living room with beamed cathedral ceilings, a separate loft area, eat-in kitchen with dining area, two bedrooms and two full baths. There are also front and back decks for outdoor entertaining.

The magnificently landscaped property contains a three-car detached garage with workshop and storage shed, generator house, donkey barn and stone springhouse used as a pool changing room. Stone-walled gardens, native plantings, sweeping lawns and open rolling meadows lend a captivating feel to this peaceful country compound, which is adjacent to Tewksbury’s extensive network of horse trails. Tewksbury is a charming part of picturesque Hunterdon County, an area known for its horse farms, hot air ballooning festivals and sweeping landscapes. It is located about an hour from Manhattan and Newark International Airport, and just minutes from Routes 287, 78 and 206. Fine dining, shopping, excellent schools and outstanding sporting facilities are nearby.
