Property Description
Strategically repositioned to 899,000, this is an exceptional opportunity to build a custom residence in one of New Jersey's most sought after communities. Ideally located just 0.70 miles from the Westfield NJ Transit station and vibrant downtown district, this property offers a rare chance to create a fully reimagined home in a premier neighborhood where quality new construction continues to command strong demand.The existing structure has been completely gutted, allowing the next owner to move into the construction phase upon final site plan approval. Architectural plans have been revised and resubmitted to the Westfield Planning Board for approval, and reflect a thoughtfully designed expansion aligned with today's luxury buyer expectations. The proposed residence features an open concept first floor with a spacious kitchen and family room, private office, and full bath. The second level includes a sophisticated primary suite and three additional bedrooms. The third floor offers a large finished room with full bath, ideal for flexible living, guest space, or recreation. The expanded home is designed for approximately 3,000 square feet, consisting of 9 rooms, 4 bedrooms, and 4 full baths, plus a full basement. A detached two car garage is also proposed. Survey is attached.This offering presents a streamlined path for builders, investors, or end users ready to act in a market where well located build opportunities are increasingly limited.
