You know that "love" and "warmth" feeling you get when you walk into someones home and it just feels right, well welcome to 18 Lamatan Rd, located on nearly an acre, in the original Lamatan section with No Outlet, lending itself to extreme privacy. This 4 bedroom and 2.5 bath Brick front Colonial has been extraordinarily well cared for and updated over the last 13 years. The classic center-hall style has the traditional formal Living and Dining rooms on one side, a central Kitchen and a sunken Family room on the left with a 3-season room off the back. The main floor has original hardwoods throughout and the Kitchen was remodeled in 2010 to include solid wood cabinetry, granite counters and SS appliances. The sunken Family room has a beautiful coffered ceiling, dry bar and a brick fireplace. The rear 3-season room has tile floors, tons of windows and recessed lighting. On the upper level you have your Master bedroom with sitting/dressing area and a full bath, 3 very large secondary bedrooms and a completely remodeled full hall bath with double vanities and 24" tile floors. Other notable features include a 2 year old hybrid electric/oil HVAC, (natural gas is at the house) roof in 2008, new electric panel in 2009, water heater in 2019, original hardwoods throughout both floors, cordless blinds on all of the windows, invisible dog fence and a 2 car side entry garage. This is a must see in a very quiet section of north-western Newark.
