Description

Character and charm abound in this 3 BR 2 1/2 bath custom home sited on a tranquil, wooded 1 acre lot near the center of Watchung. A true skilled craftsman lived here and used his talents to create custom cabinetry and doors throughout. The quality is simply unmatched. Kitchen and bathrooms have been tastefully renovated in a timeless, neutral palette and feature granite counters and exquisite tile work. Other interior features include original hardwood floors, custom built-ins, wood-burning fireplace in living room, recessed lighting, modern appliances (including double, electric wall ovens for those who love to bake). Don't miss the walk up attic with skylight, which is currently used for storage but has a myriad of uses, depending on your needs. Roof replaced in 2017. HVAC replaced in 2018. Outside, a lovely stone patio is perfect for entertaining or just relaxing with your morning coffee or evening beverage of choice while enjoying the flora or fauna. Conveniently located near commuting routes with swift access to NYC, shopping, dining, and entertainment. For outdoor enthusiasts, the nearby Watchung Reservation offers many opportunities for hiking, biking, fishing, horseback riding, picnicking and kayaking. Or explore the playgrounds, science center, and Feltville Village. HIGHLY RATED school district!
