About This Home

As of September 2022

Have you always dreamed of moving to the suburbs and buying that adorable home with the white picket fence? Look no more! This charming colonial nestled on a quiet street in Westfield is the perfect place to make that dream come true! Upon entering, you are greeted by a light-filled living room, a spacious eat-in kitchen w/granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a center island complete with a prep sink. In addition, a full bath and laundry are also conveniently located on the first floor. The 2nd level features 3 oversized bedrooms and a full bathroom. This home has plenty of common areas to host social gatherings. There is a finished basement that makes for a great recreation room with an adjoining storage room. For additional entertaining space, you may venture outside to enjoy the lush greenery and colorful perennials while relaxing on the new paver-stone patio. Best of all worlds, this home is a short walk to Brightwood Park which is a 44-acre nature preserve featuring 1.6 miles of trails through forest and a loop around a pond. It is also close to the NYC train, shopping, restaurants, schools and all that beautiful downtown Westfield has to offer.
