As of December 2022

Welcome to 89 Berkshire Road! The main level of this light-filled home has an open floor plan with the living room, family room, and kitchen all offering great flow. The dining room, currently set-up as a a home office, is accessed via a french door off the kitchen, and has a second set of french doors on the foyer side to create a more private space if desired. There are hardwood floors throughout this level, and the family room has a fireplace and sliders to the deck. The well-equipped kitchen has a center island, granite counters, a pantry and stainless appliances. A cozy dining area with built-in benches overlooks the private back yard. Upstairs is the primary bedroom with a tray ceiling, walk-in closet, and en-suite bath. The bath offers double sinks and a tiled shower with a frameless glass door. Three more bedrooms with closet organizers and a full hall bath share this level. The lower level is partially finished with a rec room or home office and offers a tiled area at the garage entrance that can serve as a mudroom. The house is set back from the road, creating lots of room to enjoy the outdoors. A deck and a stone patio offer great space for outdoor living. Recent updates include a new front door and family room sliders, new garage doors, driveway paved in 2021, and newer roof. Great location close to the village of Sandy Hook with great shops and restaurants. Also a convenient commuting location with easy access to destinations via both Route 34 and I-84!
