Spectacularly Renovated New Vernon Residence on 5 Scenic Acres Everything old is new again in a gracefully renovated New Vernon residence set along a winding country road. This re-designed home was completely re-built from the foundation up in 2022, and the current owners recently upgraded the stylish interior to create exceptionally comfortable, spacious and chic living spaces. Set on five open, level acres with a tree-lined perimeter for privacy and distant winter views, the grounds feature custom hand-built stone retaining walls, bluestone stairs and walkways, gravel walking paths and mature plantings. Inside, the light-filled 7,300+ square-foot floor plan contains six bedroom suites including a first-floor primary suite, six full baths, a powder room, and a two-car garage. The stately architecture is a fresh take on classical manors seen throughout Harding Township. Highlights of the flexible layout include hardwood floors on the first and second levels, expertly detailed millwork, three gas fireplaces, high ceilings, a custom wet bar, recessed and Lutron lighting, designer baths, a Nest Smart Home system, Sonos sound system and whole house generator. The newly paved drive and adjacent bluestone walkways lead to both the front and rear foyers introducing this remarkable home. Double doors reveal the front foyer designed with ample closets and a charming window seat overlooking pastoral views. Main gathering areas span from this bright, airy entrance, including a family room lined in custom millwork, which opens to the great room. This generous space is anchored by a custom stone fireplace featuring a reclaimed wood mantle and gas logs. Entertainment-friendly amenities such as a wet bar topped in Pietra quartzite, a wall-mounted television and black steel French doors to the rear bluestone terrace are additional highlights. Nearby, a powder room has a custom designed vessel sink vanity. The cathedral ceiling in the rear foyer has a two-story window, staircase to the second level, and dramatically tiered black iron chandelier. This entryway connects to the formal dining room/home office, where walls are clad in custom grasscloth and a black carriage house-style chandelier illuminates the space. Of special note is the epicurean kitchen fitted with white oak custom cabinets, Pietra quartzite counters, a shiplap ceiling, Franke farmhouse sink, a huge quartzite-topped center island with a butcher block extension lit by a trio of antique brass lanterns, a coffee and tea station cabinet and a double-sided gas fireplace finished in smooth plaster. A collection of upper-end appliances includes a Wolf six-burner gas stove with griddle and two ovens topped by a custom hood faced in plaster with oak trim and served by a pot filler, a Wolf wall oven, Wolf microwave drawer, two refrigerator drawers, an oversized Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer with a panel front and two Bosch dishwashers. The sunny breakfast area offers Dutch door access to a bluestone terrace for outdoor dining. Adjacent to the kitchen is a butler’s pantry with ample cabinetry, a butcher block counter, open shelving and brick tile floors in a herringbone pattern which extend into the mudroom. Here, customized storage options and double doors to the rear property are featured.
