Property Description
From the outside, it looks like a classic Cape. But the moment you step inside, you realize this one is different. At nearly 2,000 square feet, this fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home on a quiet dead-end street in Cranford offers something you just don't find very often: space that surprises you, a layout that actually works, and a backyard that makes you want to cancel your plans and just... stay home. The main level flows naturally from the living room into the dining room and kitchen, with two bedrooms and a full bath rounding out the first floor. Hardwood floors run throughout, recessed lighting keeps things bright and warm, and the kitchen and baths have all been done right. Then you head upstairs, and that's where this home really opens up. The 2nd floor functions as a true retreat with a bedroom, full bath, living room, dining area, and kitchenette. Use it as a primary suite unlike anything you've seen. Keep loved ones close while still giving everyone their own space. The possibilities are real. Out back, the yard goes deep. A large deck off the house, a second deck by the above-ground pool, and a fire pit area that practically begs for late summer nights and s'mores. This is the backyard people dream about when they picture life in the suburbs. Renovated less than seven years ago. Move-in ready. Tucked on a dead-end street where the neighbors wave and the street stays quiet. Less than a mile to downtown & NYC transportation.
