Stillwater, Sussex County
Stillwater Township lies in the Kittatinny Valley of western Sussex County below Kittatinny Mountain, bordering Fredon, Hampton, Walpack, and Frelinghuysen and Hardwick in Warren County. No interstate, U.S., or state highway crosses it; County Route 521 is the main road. The township holds Swartswood State Park, New Jersey's first state park, along with lake communities at Swartswood Lake, Paulins Kill Lake, Fairview Lake, and part of Crandon Lakes.
Swartswood Lake became a resort in the early 1900s, and Paulins Kill Lake was created by damming the Paulins Kill in the 1920s. Summer cottages and cabins around these lakes have grown into year-round homes. Converted cottages can have small footprints, older additions, and systems that inspectors question. We buy them as they are.
Stillwater village centers on the First Presbyterian Church with a historic core of stone houses and mills, and the township has 18th-century stone houses such as Whitehall, built in 1785, and the Wintermute houses. Very old homes can be costly to insure and repair. We buy historic properties without asking you to fix anything.
Agriculture and dairy farming remain central to Stillwater's character, and the whole township drains to the Paulins Kill. Farmhouses and acreage are difficult for many buyers to finance, and appraisers may struggle to find similar sales. We buy rural Stillwater property for cash, including land with barns and outbuildings.

In New Jersey, an inherited house is sold through the estate, so the executor or court-appointed administrator signs the sale. We talk with each heir separately and privately, so no one has to negotiate as a group, and we'll walk you through getting an administrator appointed if that hasn't happened yet.
