The private patio and manageable lot let you enjoy some outdoor time without the upkeep. Just moments from Newark’s best amenities, and well within the 5 mile radius of Newark Charter School (with a bus stop right in the neighborhood), with easy access to major roads, this home offers the perfect balance of serenity and connectivity.
