About This Home

Welcome to this lovely turn-key home in Preserve at Lafayette! This large Oxford model has four bedrooms & four full bathrooms, making this home everything a discerning buyer could ask for! Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, this lot has the privacy you're looking for! As you enter into the welcoming 2 story foyer, you'll notice that hardwood floors grace most of the main level. The traditional floorplan has the living room to one side of the foyer and dining room to the other. Both have plenty of natural light; the dining room has a walk in bay window. As you move back to the kitchen you'll notice the lovely maple cabinets, tiled back splash, island with breakfast bar, Insinkerator disposal and updates including stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, range hood exhaust and a continuation of the beautiful hardwoods! There's a sliding door off the kitchen that leads to the large screened in porch. The kitchen is separated from the family room with a half wall that has built in seating on the kitchen side. The 2-story family room features 2 Velux skylights, a gas fireplace and an open back staircase (changed from the original, closed design). The main level also features an office/den in the back of the home. There's also an updated full bath just outside of this room in case you'd like to have guests use this room as a bedroom. It features a tiled shower with frameless glass door, porcelain tile floor and vanity with quartz countertop. Main floor laundry completes this level As you move upstairs you'll again notice the many updates! The large primary suite was flipped to the "other" side of the house when designed to give it more privacy! This lovely retreat has 5" laminate wood floors and the sitting room has been converted to a large, walk-in closet with IKEA PAX closet system with smart lighting. There's another walk-in closet here as well as a private bath with tiled shower stall, soaking tub, new vanity with quartz counter and new hardware as well as a new toilet. The upstairs has other very spacious bedrooms that share an updated hall bath. The finished basement was thoughtfully designed with multiple uses in mind. There's a large open space that could be used for whatever fits your needs. There's a walk-in storage closet, a full bathroom, everything you need to install a wet bar or mini-kitchen, as well as a full home theater! (Please see documents with disclosures for all the details!) All of this with a 2 car garage with finished floor and built-in shelving system, a 440 sq ft deck that was updated last year and a private back yard that backs to a preserve. Located within the Newark Charter School radius and close to I-95. Don't miss your opportunity to tour this wonderful home! (Please see list with disclosure for all the updates!)
