About 10 Franklin Pl
"Highgrove Court" presents an unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of Morristown's history and charm. This 16-room estate, originally built by Alfred Vail, stands as a testament to the Gilded Age's grandeur. Nestled behind a gated entry, yet mere steps from downtown Morristown, it offers convenience and seclusion in equal measure. The interior showcases breathtaking details, from the arched reception hall to the stately 14' ceilings and four working fireplaces. The gourmet kitchen, adorned with professional-grade appliances and a gas fireplace, is a culinary haven, complemented by a butler's pantry. The owner's suite is a sanctuary, boasting a yoga/art studio, vaulted beamed ceilings, and a lavish master bath with radiant heat floors. Outside, a sun-drenched conservatory leads to a lush half-acre garden with a koi pond, outdoor kitchen, and resort-style heated pool with a separate spa. A new oversized three-car garage completes this magnificent estate, offering ample space for storage or a studio loft. Don't miss your chance to own this piece of history and luxury in the heart of Morristown.
