A rare opportunity to own one of Salem County's most remarkable properties, this extraordinary 70-acre estate offers nearly one-third of a mile of frontage along the Salem River. The landscape blends tilled farmland, mature woodlands and scenic river views, creating endless possibilities for agriculture, equestrian use, livestock, vineyards, specialty crops and recreation. Park-like clearings along the river offer unforgettable settings for entertaining, celebrations or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. At the heart of the property is a circa 1780 three-story center hall Colonial, preserved through generations. Original details include the home's historic hearth and fireplaces throughout, complemented by a later kitchen wing designed for modern living and entertaining. The second floor offers four bedrooms, including two ensuite, plus a hall bath. The unfinished third floor provides space for two additional bedrooms and a room pre-plumbed for a future bath. The estate has inspired two published works, Hot Dogs in the Cave and Letters to Rolling Acres, referencing its historic name and storied past. Despite its private setting, the property is just 15 minutes from downtown Swedesboro and less than 30 minutes from Wilmington, with dining, shopping and Amtrak's Acela service. A property of this scale, history, and natural beauty is rarely offered, presenting a truly unique opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of South Jersey's landscape and heritage.
