A 135-acre Christmas tree farm in Warren County, New Jersey, has just hit the market for $1.485 million, marking the first time in 80 years the property has been offered for sale after being in the same family for eight decades. Nestled at 21 Frontage Road in Blairstown, the farm encompasses a 19th-century timber-frame barn, farmland, and a guest cottage.
Protected by a farmland preservation deed, the land cannot be altered for commercial or residential use, ensuring its agricultural purpose. The historic main barn, constructed in 1839, retains its original heavy timber frame and loft space. Adjacent is a main house and guest cottage, each equipped with independent living facilities.
The farm includes active hay fields, wooded areas, and a stream. As part of New Jersey's Farmland Preservation Program, future owners are barred from subdividing the property into residential units. The preservation status also offers tax benefits under local farmland assessment rules.
The Blairstown property has been a family-operated Christmas tree business for eight decades, expanding over the mid-20th century to incorporate crop rotation and hay production. The current owners are selling the farm, including machinery, infrastructure, and established customer routes, with interested parties having until late autumn to submit offers. The sale will be timed around the upcoming holiday tree harvest.
