Best of both worlds!this idyllic Cape sits high above Lawrence Brook in the beloved Neighborhood of Edgebrook, within NB city limits but seems a million miles away. This Pristine home has been lovingly cared for and updated. Chic, warm and functional is how I would best describe this 3 BR 2.5 Bath "Currier & Ives" cape, Enter the foyer and you are greeted by the front to back formal living room with a wood burning, wood surround fireplace as your focal point, and windows that have views of front to back yard. The formal dining room has a beautiful current chandelier, bay window and handy access to kitchen. The kitchen overlooks the wooded back yard and was fully updated in 2009: SS appliances, Granite countertops, handsome dark cabinetry, smart tile backsplash, rustic wooden island w/ under storage and ceiling mount SS pot rack above, High hat lighting, pantry, french doors lead to rear deck and patio allows you to dine alfresco , triple window above the sink lets you take in the sites of nature in your own back yard, adjacent to kitchen is eat in area that would house a large farm table(previously a 1 car garage and could easily be converted back). Also on the main level is a big surprise! step down to a marvelous sun drenched family room (2001) with gable ceiling, exposed distressed brick chimney and 9 windows!this overlooks 3 sides of the property. A modern twist is found in the powder room tucked beneath the main stairs. Upstairs you will find 3BR's, the master en suite is perfect and the full bath has been tastefully updated with a Kohler pedestal sink & toilet, ceramic tile with glass accents. A full updated bath in the hall serves the remaining 2 BR's, and a skylight in hall. Hardwood floors & current neutral walls throughout this home. Windows replaced 2012.Laundry in full basement as well as lots of room for storage. The long driveway fits 3 cars, brick path way in front, mature landscape, partial cedar roof adds charm and character, new gutters 17', rear yard has deck , patio & shed, surrounded by majestic trees and walking path to brook beneath. A NY city commuters dream NJ transit bus at the towers, walk to bus stop. After a day in NYC come home light a fire & relax in this dream house, its a MUST see. .. Close to Rutgers & Princeton Univ, Major hospitals, Jersey Shore beaches 45mins, NJ Turnpike exit 9 , calling all commuters to this hidden gem of a neighborhood.
