About This Home

As of December 2021

This gracious ranch is set on a lovely woodsy 1.6 acre property with a fenced level back yard. Spacious large room sizes make it comfortable for one floor living. The kitchen is updated with granite counters and a breakfast area. It has easy access to the laundry room and two car garage. The adjacent formal dining room opens to the light and bright Living Room with oversized picture window on the back yard. The family room is warm and welcoming, with a fireplace, picture window and built in bookcase. The sunroom is a highlight of this home, a perfect place to relax and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Watchung Hills. The master bedroom has a private bath with large and attractive shower. The hall bath is convenient to two more spacious bedrooms. Lower level is walkout to the patio and back yard, with two large finished rooms to work as home office and entertainment room. The lower level also includes a large storage room and utility area. The location is very private, but just minutes from Route 78 for easy commuting and about 5 minutes to the Connell Corporate Center and Lifetime Fitness gym.
