Fox Feather Farm is a premier equestrian estate sited on over 33 open, rolling acres just outside the village of Oldwick in Tewksbury Township. The vast property encompasses a custom-built seven-bedroom Colonial, a two-bedroom rental cottage, garage parking for seven vehicles and a heated greenhouse. Horse facilities include a restored historic bank barn with eight stalls, a tack/feed room and wash stall, an indoor riding ring, outdoor arena and over 21 acres of fenced pastures and hayfields. This incomparable setting overlooking hundreds of acres of preserved land presents a heated in-ground gunite pool with spa, fish pond, walking trails, and a fruit orchard. Located an hour from New York City, Fox Feather Farm combines all the best aspects of rustic charm and metropolitan convenience. Finished in clapboard and capped by a cedar shake roof, the elegant main house is set at the end of a curving drive accessed from a private road. The porte-cochere and European-inspired courtyard lend architectural interest to this one-of-a-kind residence. Highlights of the interior such as high ceilings accented by exposed wood beams, five fireplaces, wood floors, expansive window walls and multiple sets of transom-topped French doors which frame the natural vistas are grace notes enhancing this grand countryside residence. Generous gathering areas such as the living, dining, and family rooms feature transom-topped windows and French doors to the veranda, where inspirational views reinforce the home's strong indoor-outdoor connection. An airy eat-in kitchen set under beamed, vaulted ceilings is designed with granite counters, stainless steel appliances including a natural gas-fired Aga range, wide plank pine floors, maple cabinetry, and a butler's pantry. The first floor's primary suite contains a fireside bedroom, study, two walk-in closets, laundry room and luxurious marble bath featuring a sauna, steam shower enclosed by clear glass, jetted tub and outdoor pool access. A second bedroom suite on this level features an ADA bath with wheelchair access. Additional private spaces continue upstairs; there are three en suite bedrooms, two more bedrooms sharing another full bath, plus a spacious in-law suite with a private entrance, bedroom, full bath, gathering room and efficiency kitchen. The walkout ground level shows the same attention to detail as the rest of the home. It has a billiards room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace accessing a covered stamped concrete patio, a recreation room, media room adjoining a full bath, another full bath serving pool guests, and a mud/laundry room. Ideal as a full or part-time retreat, potential uses include livestock farming, a future vineyard or an exceptional vacation residence. The refined, understated design makes Fox Feather Farm seem as if it's existed for generations, yet the oldest structure was built in 1998. This scenic property emphasizes a magical connection with nature, taking inspiration from notable estates and farms located around the world. Ref: 36672-3787045
