About This Home

As of January 2022

With a backyard that abuts Leonia's desirable Wood Park, this well-maintained 3 Bedroom, 2 bath home with high ceilings and hardwood floors throughout has some of those decorative touches like the dish rail molding in the dining room that remind us of yesteryear. Cozy up in the living room with its wood-burning fireplace in the cold winter months or enjoy your patio living in the spring and summer. With a tastefully finished new bathroom on the first floor and an enclosed front porch one can enjoy throughout the year, this home might be just what you've been seeking. Located one block west of Broad Avenue near the center of town, access to local shopping, NYC transportation, restaurants and the municipal library is so convenient that you won't believe your good fortune that its available now! At one time home to many academicians and artists, you can easily appreciate why Leonia earned the nickname of "the Athens of New Jersey." Don't hesitate. Call for an appointment today!
