Just 50 miles beyond New York City, this bucolic 10-acre property at 89 Fairmount Road West is home to By Pond Farm, a four-bedroom home that looks to be part modern farmhouse, part Adirondack lodge. But it's not in the Adirondacks (it's in Tewksbury Township, New Jersey), and though it offers every modern comfort, the original home was constructed in 1900. Recent renovations (as seen in House Beautiful) have brought what the listing refers to as a "gentleman's farm" into the 21st century with state-of-the-art appliances in the kitchen, a movie theater, and a saltwater pool. There's even a glass elevator. In addition to the farmhouse, the property, asking $3,995,000, features a party barn, a pond, outbuildings and barns, and beautifully landscaped grounds.
is by pond farm the place to be?
