About This Home
As of June 2026Welcome to 457 Preakness Run in Old Post Farms—where privacy, convenience, and everyday comfort come together on one of the community’s premier lots backing to peaceful, undeveloped woods. This thoughtfully maintained home and 4th den/office or potential bedroom on main level offers the space today’s move-up buyers are searching for, with a functional open-concept layout designed for both entertaining and everyday living. Natural flow connects the kitchen and living areas, creating a warm and inviting environment filled with light and connection. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite serves as a true retreat with an en-suite bath and relaxing soaking tub. A main-level bedroom with French doors provides flexibility for guests, a home office, or multi-generational living. The partially finished basement expands your living space with a versatile recreation area, while still offering ample storage. Step outside to your fully fenced backyard oasis—complete with a deck and serene wooded backdrop—perfect for relaxing evenings, entertaining, or simply enjoying nature right at home. Significant updates provide peace of mind, including hardwood flooring (2020), whole-house surge protection (2025), new garbage disposal (2025), new storm door (2026), and updated smoke and carbon monoxide detectors (2025). Ideally located for commuters with easy access to I-95 and major routes to Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey, and even Washington, DC. Plus, within a 5-mile radius to the highly sought-after Newark Charter School. This is the rare combination of location, lot, and livability you’ve been waiting for.
