Property Description
The Hertzog School opened its doors to students in Rockland Township in 1849. A wonderful conversion has created an open plan sophisticated living space with modern conveniences while retaining and restoring many of the original features. The wall to wall chalk boards, the raised teacher's stage, the original pine flooring and the spectacular deep window sills all create the atmosphere of the authentic building. The most unique feature has to be the bell tower complete with the original school bell. The rope could be re-attached and the bell would ring again. Most of the stone has been exposed inside and out, the nine over nine panel windows have been replaced with high quality custom sash. The L shaped kitchen has all new cabinetry with stainless appliances and custom pulls. The tax records show the home as a 2 bedroom but it is currently used as one. The second could easily be framed out again on the main level. There is a modern bathroom with tile floors on the main level and a powder room upstairs along with the conveniently located laundry room. To this, add pretty landscaping and a two car garage. Charm and function united.
