The quaint village of Mountainville is a sought-after location in Tewksbury Township which provides a serene setting for this custom-built luxury residence on 5.4 acres. Poised high above Rockaway Creek, the applied masonry stucco and stone manor promises privacy and seclusion with a quick and convenient location minutes from Interstate 78. The drama enfolds at the gated entry with a stone bridge and curving drive to the home site set far back from the road. Detailed construction methods are apparent in the hand-made wood shutters, Jeld-Wen windows and lantern-lit stone stairs leading to the covered porch entry. An elegantly-appointed interior features solid wood doors, mellow walnut-hued floors, fine millwork, stone accents and multiple sets of French doors. The centrally located gourmet kitchen is amazing: dual commercial-grade Traulsen refrigeration units and a Garland range with grill, griddle, warming shelf and dual ovens are just the beginning. An oversized granite-topped center island provides seating for five and a warming drawer below the microwave. Polished nickel fixtures, a large sink and self-closing drawers make cooking in this space a joy. The kitchen opens to the great room with a stunning fieldstone fireplace and a gallery-style hallway leading to a second gathering room and a private home office. This large space could be converted to a first-floor master suite by adding a bath and walk-in closet. It is also ideal for a large home school area with adjoining adult office space. The unique floor plan continues upstairs where three bedrooms include a master suite featuring a private bath and walk-in closet, a study nook and a walk-up staircase to the full attic. Finished spaces on the ground level include French doors to a gym connecting to a sitting area, and an au pair room with a full bath. This level could also accommodate an in-law suite on the ground level. A full workshop with storage and mechanical rooms complete this level. A Generac generator provides uninterrupted power.
