Rare opportunity to own Rest Harrow! Located just one mile from Morristown Green, award-winning restaurants, and MPAC. This stunning estate set on 1.44 acres is truly one of a kind. Iconic historic Washington Headquarters, Morristown Victorian circa 1872, has been lovingly renovated to perfection by the owner/designer. The original architecture and character details are just incredible including 9 fireplaces, 10 ft ceilings, and a magazine-worthy wrap-around porch. One of our favorite spots is the custom-built backyard pavilion with a full outdoor kitchen, fireplace, and the perfect place to host your next party. The property also has a barn/garage with a gym and rec room. Plenty of room to add a pool!. Best of all, the low Morristown taxes of $31,424 (according to the 2020 tax records). Close vicinity to New York City train, sought-after schools and convenience to fantastic downtown Morristown, 69 Morris Avenue is in a class of its own and will not last!
