About This Home
As of September 2020Beautifully renovated 4 bedroom, 1.5 bath home in Newark's popular Chestnut Hill Estates neighborhood, and within the 5 mile cutoff for Newark Charter School. This home has so much to offer with its open floor plan, finished lower level, 3-season porch addition, attached workshop/storage area, and a huge 20' x 24' detached 1-car garage. Instant curb appeal with sculpted front beds, brick stairs and stately columns flanking the front doorway. Once inside you'll be greeted with gleaming refinished hardwood floors that extend to all of the bedrooms. The reconfigured kitchen is open and stylish with custom shaker cabinets featuring crown molding and soft-close doors, recessed lighting, an oversized island with bar seating, tile floors & backsplash, granite counters, stainless steel appliances and a new pantry closet. This open kitchen flows into a dining area and living room with high vaulted ceilings and loads of natural light from the 5-section bow window. Great space for social gatherings with family and friends. A few steps up are 3 bedrooms with new ceiling fans and a renovated full bath, complete with a custom ceramic tile tub surround and tiled floors. The lower level features a cozy family room and 4th bedroom/office, as well as a renovated half bath and laundry room. From this level there's a walkout to a huge enclosed 3-season porch that runs along the back of the home. It's a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or relax after a long day at work overlooking your private fenced-in back yard. Looking for a man cave - how about a spacious detached garage where you can tinker on your cars, or even set up a full woodworking shop. Other major systems upgrades include the roof and gas furnace/AC in 2016. This home has it all! Don't wait - MAKE THIS YOUR NEW HOME TODAY - before it's too late!
