Description

Welcome to this stunningly renovated turn of the century South Orange home, just moments from downtown village shops, cafes, and restaurants and a commuter's dream with the NYC direct train nearby. Reimagined from top to bottom by a trusted local builder with a stellar reputation, this home combines the sophistication of a Brooklyn brownstone with the comfort and space of suburban living. The inviting front porch is perfect for lounging, chatting with neighbors, and watching the world go by. Inside, you'll find bright, airy interiors with impressive ceiling height and an ideal open flow. The new kitchen features modern cabinetry, sleek countertops, and premium finishes, and opens directly to the formal dining room, creating a perfect space for entertaining. The second floor offers 3 spacious bedrooms and a beautifully designed full bath. The third floor is home to a luxurious primary suite with a large picture window overlooking the backyard, two walk in closets, and a luxe bath with double sinks, a glass-enclosed shower, and heated floors. A fourth bedroom on this level makes a great home office or guest room. Every detail has been updated, including all new electrical, plumbing, and windows, plus brand new two-zone central air and heating.
