111 Cherry Ln, Basking Ridge, NJ 07920
Surrounded by nature on over 5 acres of idyllic forested land, this 4,845 sq.ft., 5 bed, 4 bath home is the only one on a tucked away cul-de-sac. The sounds of nature make for a quieting retreat; wind rustling through trees, the babble of the flowing brook, and ducks splashing in the private pond.
An entry with soaring angled ceilings opens to the living room, where dormer windows deliver daylight, and rich wood floors combine with a stone fireplace to create warm ambiance.
The open concept family room, kitchen and dining room are sleek and modern, with a relaxing energy. Elevated by a paneled accent wall and rustic whitewashed fireplace, the family room is stunningly on-trend. With a massive 11’ quartz counter, the kitchen island is the center of the home, a place to gather with friends and loved ones to share good food and memories. Two-toned cabinets in soft white and dusky blue have timeless appeal, and a herringbone backsplash of natural stone extends to the ceiling, complementing Viking appliances that include a 6-burner range with grill. The adjoining dining room features a butler’s pantry with a wine refrigerator that creates upscale dining experiences, with folding doors diffusing light into the space.
High angled ceilings and a huge 10 x 10 walk-in closet are luxurious upgrades in the master suite, with the ensuite bath featuring heated floors, a marble clad shower, and a freestanding tub for soaking cares away. Three additional downstairs bedrooms look out on tree views, including a second master bedroom that connects to the outdoors with a large deck and soothing pond views.
Upstairs, a large open space with charming custom moldings makes an ideal media or game room. A 5th bedroom with an adjoining bath is a quiet retreat away from the rest of the house and could find use as home office, gym or private space for guests.
Smart upgrades abound, including a 600+ sq.ft. deck surrounded by nature, an oversized 3-car garage, a 3-unit HVAC system with 5 zones, and an unfinished walkout basement that gives fantastic potential to create additional living space.
The location offers a retreat from the busyness of life that connects with nature, without sacrificing convenience. Situated between Basking Ridge and Bernard’s Township downtown, and minutes from I-287, three train stations, and Verizon Operations HQ.
