Property Description
Opportunity and tremendous potential awaits at this Custom Colonial home in Scotch Plains, offering 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, with hardwood flooring throughout. This home has been well maintained but could benefit from a 'face-lift', making it an excellent opportunity to renovate, update, or create your dream home now or a little down the road. Estate property being sold strictly 'as-is,' including the wood-burning fireplace (sold as-is). The home also features Central Air Conditioning and a spacious layout with plenty of potential for modern updates. Situated on a corner lot with fencing, the property includes 2 garages and generous outdoor space. Perfect for first-time buyers, investors or contractors, this home offers a chance to build equity in a desirable neighborhood where renovated and newly built homes often sell for over $1M. Conveniently located near the Fanwood Train Station, offering commuter access by rail or bus to NYC. Close to major highways including Routes 22, 78, 287 and the Garden State Parkway. This home is also located within the highly regarded Scotch Plains-Fanwood Public Schools district, known for its Blue Ribbon recognized schools. A fantastic opportunity to update and personalize a solid home in one of Union County's most desirable communities. Property to be sold 'As-Is'. This one won't last.
