McMurtry Farm is a magnificent 217-acre estate property in Bedminster's famed horse country. This unique offering is held in 6 parcels and includes the custom 15,000+-sq-ft manor house spanning 3-levels, a separate one-bedroom apartment, beautiful climate-controlled greenhouse, stone patios, brick walls, pond with waterfall, tennis court, and extensive gardens. Brick, limestone and a slate roof envelop the residence sited majestically at the end of an extraordinary mile-long picturesque drive through acres of rolling fields and woodlands. Custom architectural details abound from the raised panel wainscot, crown molding and intricate millwork to the 2-story cherry-paneled library and 1st-floor media room. In the foyer, a curved floating staircase to the upper and lower levels is dramatically eye-catching. Beautifully scaled, finely detailed rooms feature hardwood and stone floors, high ceilings, French doors, and four fireplaces. All bedrooms are en-suite with walk-in closets. The lower level offers a wine cellar, gym, billiards room, playroom, kitchenette, and full bath. With mature trees, gardens, thoughtfully designed landscape and hardscape, the residence is poised on a rise overlooking sweeping lawns and a magnificent well-fed pond and waterfall. The expansive rear bluestone patio allows for views of the lush scenery. There are 7+ bays and a heated motor courtyard for the car enthusiast. A separate private one-bedroom apartment rounds out this incredible offering. Shopping, dining & recreational opportunities abound in the area as well as equestrian facilities, nationally ranked golf courses, and excellent public and private schools. While allowing exceptional privacy, the home is in close proximity to the NJ Transit train, Routes 78/287 and 50 miles to NYC. Create your own country compound with developable acreage available.
