About This Home
As of September 2021Updated and expanded Cape (2900+ SF). Beautiful master suite w/walk-in closet, hardwood floors, updated kitchen, finished walkout basement. Great yard - you could be in before the end of the summer! Located on a cul-de-sac street with low traffic, this property is in walking distance to Oak Street Elementary School and the quaint Village of Basking Ridge. The detached garage creates space at the back of the yard that the owners have made into a entertaining refuge! Four bedrooms plus an office on the second floor provides functional flexibility that is often needed as more people work from home.
