This home is located near the end of a cul-de-sac, backs to community parkland, and is just inside the Newark Charter School 5-mile radius. Recent updates include kitchen renovations, and a new water heater and HVAC in 2018. Upon entering this well-maintained home you'll notice the stylishly painted walls and bright white doors and trim, updated lighting fixtures, and ceiling fans in the family room and all 4 bedrooms. The recently renovated eat-in kitchen includes shaker cabinets with brushed nickel pulls, a coffee corner, beautiful granite countertops, and a subway tile backsplash with decorative accent tiles. The eat-in area overlooks a large refurbished deck and the wooded acres out back. The outdoor space is perfect for grilling out and enjoying your landscaped flower beds, garden, and fenced-in back yard. When it comes to indoor living space, there is a separate dining room with a bay window, a cozy living room with a gas fireplace, and a bright spacious family room with a vaulted ceiling and calming views of the backyard and woods beyond. The first level also has a centrally located half bath. Upstairs you'll find four well-scaled bedrooms, including a large master suite with its own private bath, a shared hall bath, and a convenient 2nd floor laundry. One bedroom even offers a quaint little reading nook created by a dormer window on the front of the home. The unfinished basement has high ceilings, a new sump pump, and is clean, dry, and ready for your finishing touches. There's also some built-in shelving in one corner for housing your storage bins. If you're looking for that perfect place to call home, with many updates, peaceful backyard views, and convenient access to Rt. 1 & I-95, look no further! Make this your new home today!
