What's special
Thank you for your interest! An offer deadline has been set for Monday 10/27 at 12pm (noon). All offers received before then will be presented to the sellers. Discover sophisticated townhouse living at 1705 Mel Lane, where everyday ease meets elevated design. With 3 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 baths across roughly 2,325 sq ft, this home was built in 2021 and tailored for comfort. From the moment you step onto the wide-plank floors, you’ll appreciate the attention to detail: designer lighting, upscale finishes, and light-filled open spaces. Entertain with ease in the chef-inspired kitchen featuring a large island and stainless appliances. Upstairs, the primary suite invites relaxation with a walk in closet, luxurious bath, and dual vanities — while the additional bedrooms share a spacious full bath. The upstairs also features a spacious laundry room for ultimate convenience. The lower level flex space can function as a den, game room, office or bedroom with full bathroom. 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. It’s a rare find: modern, low maintenance, and ready for its next owner.
