About This Home

As of September 2022

This inviting 5BR center hall colonial welcomes you with a gracious front porch set back from the street, allowing you to enjoy everything life in the suburbs has to offer. This home features hardwood floors throughout, central air, and many period details. The foyer opens into a formal dining room on the right with an updated eat-in-kitchen, pantry, and powder room. The oversized living room features a new gas fireplace and a lovely sitting area with a bay window overlooking the private backyard. The first floor also has a spacious den which is currently used as a convenient home office. The second floor landing opens to 4 bedrooms and a full bath. The third level features a bedroom and full bath, plus ample storage. The spacious finished basement has a great rec room area and plenty of room for a home gym. There is a separate laundry room, more storage, and a toilet which can be made into a bathroom. The patio and deep backyard are great for entertaining and surrounded with mature plantings and beautiful hydrangea bushes. Commuting is a breeze with this centrally located home. Just 7 tenths of a mile in either direction will bring you to The Corner, where you can grab a gourmet pastry and coffee and then cross the street to the Walnut Station, or Sunrise Bagels, where you can grab a delicious bagel and coffee and then cross the street to the Watchung Ave. station.
