Northern New Jersey Real Estate Expertise from the Professionals at Turpin Realtors

Traditional Splendor

January 18th, 2012

Somerset, Morris and Hunterdon counties provide very desirable neighborhoods, with easy access to New York City, beautiful landscapes and excellent school systems. Today, I would like to concentrate on a property in Mendham Twp., an area known for its many estate areas. This particular 5.2± acre estate is so lovely and enchanting that when you approach from the circular driveway, winding through mature trees and flowering shrubs, you feel that you have arrived in a story book setting. This custom home provides 6956± sq. ft. of comfortable living space. Warmth and “Traditional Splendor” are emitted from the13 rooms that welcome you to call it your home. Set within nature’s best, you can move right into this home due to the beautiful updating that was completed in 2011. There are first and second floor family rooms, second floor billiard room, five fireplaces, five bedrooms, five baths and new, oversized picture windows that invite the wonder of this story book setting into the home.

Please contact Bella for further information and details about this lovely estate home and property. 908/930-8495.

Another beautiful town that I service in Morris County is Randolph Township, which is about 21 square miles. It is part of the New Jersey Highlands region, characterized by flat top ridges and alternating deep valleys. From certain elevated parts of Randolph you can see the Manhattan skyline. Randolph was originally settled by the Lenni Lenape Indians because of its rich soil and abundant natural beauty. The European colonists and Quakers soon became its inhabitants. The first iron mine of New Jersey was registered in 1713 in Randolph, discovered by the Quakers. The Randolph mines supplied the soldiers in the Revolutionary war. During George Washington’s winter in Jockey Hollow, supplies were procured from the mines of Randolph. During the 1930’s and 1940’s Randolph became a vacation spot for New Yorkers looking for a place with natural beauty, clean air and clean water. Many summer camps, hotels and bungalow colonies were built.

A beautiful Colonial on 1.03± level, picturesque acres has just come on the market in Randolph. This home exemplifies the town motto, “Where life is worth living.” This lovely, ready to move-in Colonial is the perfect home for buyers who want a pretty setting, safe community, good schools and easy commute to New York City. The rooms are spacious and glisten with beautiful refurbished hardwood floors, new Pella windows in several rooms and three skylights that brighten and warm every space in the home. The foyer opens to a unique second floor hallway with a vaulted ceiling and skylight. The family room is absolutely lovely and conveniently located, opening to the breakfast area and kitchen. You will adore the arched windows and two sets of French doors dressed with custom Hunter Douglas shades.


This home in Randolph is very warm and inviting and will make “Life worth Living.” Please call me for more details 908-930-8495.
