LISTING DETAILS
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own the famous Neshanic Mill in Hillsborough NJ featured on the Welcome to Hillsborough sign. Built in 1876 on the banks of the South Branch of the Raritan River, farmers would bring their grain to the mill to be ground into flour. This continued until the late 1940s. This home was turned into a residence in the 1970's and then the current owners restored the old charm of the mill while transforming it into a modern residence in the mid-1990's. Each floor is 60 ft x 40 ft, with 7200 square feet on 3 finished floors and an additional 2400 square foot walk-up attic.
The lower level features a summer room with 12-inch cypress plank flooring room that leads out double doors to the patio overlooking the river. With a Concrete reinforced stone foundation and 10x10 Timber Post and Beam Construction, this home redefines the open floor plan concept. Walls can be placed anywhere.
The Original wood planks used to house the farmer's grain in large stalls were repurposed into wall planking on the 2nd floor and many original mill artifacts are integrated into the house like pulleys, grain elevator and tracking for grain bags and the original mill flooring. The 2nd floor also features an updated kitchen, living room and dining room.
There are 4 bedrooms on the third level with a master bedroom. The master bedroom features a walk-in closet, Master bath, sitting area overlooking the river and barn style doors that open to a library.
The river is stocked with trout and teaming with smallmouth bass and panfish and is perfect for kayaking and canoeing.
