Rare Historic Live/Work Compound with Former 19th-Century Barrel Factory Unique opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind two-family property featuring a massive rear accessory structure with soaring 14-foot ceilings and historic industrial character dating back to the late 1800s. Originally operating as a barrel factory/cooperage, the rear building offers exceptional flexibility for storage, workshop, studio, collector, artisan, or hobby use. The property combines residential income potential with an extraordinarily rare high-clearance structure seldom found in residential settings. The front two-family residence provides multiple living arrangements ideal for owner-occupants, multigenerational living, or rental income. Behind the home sits the impressive former factory building with expansive open space, dramatic ceiling height, and endless adaptive-use possibilities. Property highlights include: Two-family residential configuration Historic former barrel factory/workshop structure Approximate 14-foot ceilings in rear building Exceptional storage and flex-space potential Rare live/work layout Large-scale accessory structure Income-producing potential Unique adaptive reuse opportunity Ideal for collectors, artists, makers, tradespeople, or hobbyists Convenient access to major transportation routes A truly distinctive property with character, history, and possibilities that are increasingly difficult to find in New Jersey.
