Property Description
Welcome to BellsFlower Farm, an extraordinary country estate encompassing over 99 acres in the quaint village of Sergeantsville. Offered for the first time in 32 years, this remarkable property combines privacy, history and natural beauty just a short drive from the Delaware River and the charming river towns of Stockton, Lambertville and New Hope. A long private drive winds into the property, with the residence barely visible from the road. The approach culminates in an impressive entry courtyard framed by mature hedges and statuary, creating an immediate sense of privacy and arrival. At the heart of the estate is an original farmhouse thoughtfully expanded to over 6,000 square feet. The home retains the warmth and character of its historic beginnings while offering the scale and natural light of a substantial country residence. The expansive great room serves as the formal living room, featuring a dramatic rounded vaulted ceiling, gas fireplace and abundant windows framing the surrounding landscape. Wood floors extend throughout much of the residence, including original wide-plank flooring in the older portion. Two intimate rooms in the original section are currently used as home offices but could easily adapt to other uses. An oversized dining room is ideal for entertaining, while informal living and dining spaces support everyday life. The spacious kitchen offers updated appliances, soapstone and glass countertops, a professional gas range, stainless-steel double ovens, walk-in pantry and butlers bar with its own refrigerator and additional dishwasher. An adjoining informal living and dining area is anchored by a Vermont wood-burning stove. Built-ins, fireplaces and architectural details throughout reflect the homes evolution over time. The main residence offers five bedrooms, six full baths and a powder room, providing generous accommodations for family and guests. Outdoor living is an integral part of the property. A large covered rear patio overlooks established gardens, lawns and open fields, while a separate terrace provides an inviting setting for alfresco dining and entertaining, complemented by an outdoor kitchen and barbecue station, hot tub and outdoor shower. Over more than three decades, the owners have thoughtfully cultivated the grounds, creating an extraordinary landscape of mature gardens, specimen trees and plantings. The result is a setting that would take decades to recreate, offering beauty, privacy and seasonal interest. Beyond the gardens, over 99 acres provide open land, remarkable privacy and productive soils with possibilities for agricultural and horticultural pursuits. Much of the property is enclosed by substantial deer fencing, helping protect the fields, gardens and established plantings. Additional improvements include a large tool shed, a large barn, a run-in shed for the pet Cows and detached garage with two separate apartments above, offering flexibility for guests, extended family, caretakers or other uses. The acreage, fertile ground, privacy and existing improvements lend themselves to a variety of possibilities, including a private country estate or agricultural, horticultural, vineyard, equestrian or event-related uses, subject to applicable zoning and approvals. Despite its privacy, the estate remains remarkably accessible. Stockton and the Delaware River are minutes away, while Lambertville and New Hope offer restaurants, galleries, shopping and cultural attractions. Princeton is approximately 35 to 40 minutes away, Philadelphia approximately one hour and New York City approximately 90 minutes. After 32 years in the same hands, BellsFlower Farm is ready for its next chaptera rare combination of over 99 acres, a substantial character-filled residence, mature gardens, additional living accommodations, outbuildings and extraordinary privacy in Hunterdon County.
