A secluded retreat in the middle of Rahway. You will feel like you have driven up to your country estate. House was built in 1767 and used to be the Rahway country store when it was further down St. George Ave. House was moved in 20th century to this wooded location behind the Robinson Branch river. Long driveway off St. George Ave. goes behind a park. When leaves are full you can't see the main road. Down-side is delivery people have a hard time finding you. Three bay detached garage with attic. Mature trees and a koi pond with bridge adds to the serenity. Very uniquely located. Back of house faces a cul-de-sac where you can park and in the future add a 2nd driveway. Great when you don't want to shovel the long driveway! Historic colonial on large lot (56x349), almost an acre. House has 4 bedrooms upstairs and a master bedroom downstairs, 2 full baths, wide plank floors, and some original windows from the 1700's. Immense family room was added with separate thermostat, slate floors, large raised-hearth fireplace, and separate basement underneath. Enter through the 3-season porch or the two original doors in the front. Bonus sitting room with original fireplace (non-functioning). Two large 52-pane windows - one with window seat. Great for looking out over park. Plenty of built-ins, corner cabinets, beamed ceilings, and skylights. This is a charming, historic, one-of-a-kind home and property.
