9 Springtown Road Whitehouse Station NJ 08889
Some properties stop you the moment you arrive. 9 Springtown Road is one of them.
Set on nearly 6 private acres in the Whitehouse Station section of Readington Township, this 4-bedroom contemporary colonial offers something increasingly rare in today's Hunterdon County market — genuine land, real utility, and a level of character that simply can't be replicated in a newer subdivision. If you've been searching for space, privacy, and flexibility, this is worth your full attention.
What You're Actually Getting
The acreage alone sets this home apart. Six farmland-assessed acres means the land is actively used for agricultural purposes — and that farmland assessment translates to meaningful, long-term property tax advantages compared to standard residential properties. The property currently has resident sheep. For buyers interested in hobby farming, expanded agricultural use, or simply the lifestyle that comes with land, this is a genuine opportunity.
Beyond the acreage, the infrastructure is already in place. A detached garage with a full workshop, multiple outbuildings, and a stream running through the property give this home a depth and flexibility that most listings in this price range simply don't have.
Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated. The kitchen features quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. Two wood-burning fire features — a fireplace insert and a wood-burning stove — give the home warmth and character that no gas insert can replicate. The layout includes 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a partial basement.
The 2025 Updates Give Me Confidence
As a listing agent, the question I always ask is: what would a buyer have to deal with in year one? At 9 Springtown Road, the answer is very little. A brand new roof was installed in 2025. A new septic holding tank was installed in 2025. The Trex deck is approximately 7 years old. These are the three biggest ticket items on a property like this — and they've all been addressed. That's a significant advantage for any buyer.
The Setting
Readington Township is the largest municipality in Hunterdon County at 48 square miles, and it has earned its reputation. Thousands of acres of preserved farmland and open space keep the rural character intact while Route 22, Route 78, and NJ Transit rail service keep commuters well-connected. This is half an hour from the suburbs and a world away from the congestion.
The school district is one of the most recognized in New Jersey. Students attend the Readington Township pathway through Hunterdon Central Regional High School — and Readington Middle School was the first school in the state to earn the designation of School of Distinction.
For the Right Buyer, This Is a Unicorn
Properties that combine usable acreage, multiple outbuildings, modern interior updates, and a stream on the property are limited in supply throughout Hunterdon County. This isn't a standard listing. It attracts a specific, motivated buyer — and those buyers tend to move decisively when the right property appears.
If you've been looking for something like this, I'd encourage you to schedule early.
