55 Drake Rd, Somerset, NJ 08873
About this home
This is a great opportunity to purchase a roomy, beautifully kept four bedroom home. Baths have been updated and there is original hardwood through the living room and all four bedrooms. The family room features newer carpeting and a brick, wood burning fireplace that will warm any chilly evening. The adjacent eat-in kitchen is very spacious with brand new refrigerator and a large picture window for panoramic views of the sizable yard as well as ample natural light. The laundry room is discretely hidden behind louvered doors in the kitchen area. On the other side of the kitchen is a generous formal dining room. There are newer windows throughout the home and the roof was replaced in 8/2013. Enjoy the wonderful parks that Franklin Township has to offer. Priced to sell!
