Timeless character, generous proportions, and an enviable Glen Ridge setting come together in this handsome Craftsman Colonial, set on a broad and level lot nearly 1/3 acre. From the moment you enter, original details take center stage, including a show-stopping fireplace surround and the charming tiled floor of the sunroom. Designed for both gracious entertaining and everyday living, the symmetrical first floor offers inviting living and dining rooms, light-filled family room and sunroom, and an updated kitchen finished with new quartz countertops and a fresh tile backsplash. Abundant natural light enhances the home's welcoming atmosphere throughout. The generously scaled bedrooms include a private primary suite with a beautifully organized dressing room featuring custom shelving and a dedicated primary bath. Two additional third-floor bedrooms share a full bath, while second-floor laundry hookups add convenience. The finished basement extends the living space with room to work, play, or unwind. Outside, a large paver patio overlooks a lovingly landscaped yard and leads to a two-car garage. A roof approximately two years old, multi-zone central air, and a whole-house water filtration system add modern comfort. Just two blocks from Brookdale Park and one block from Glen Ridge Country Club, with Montclair and Bloomfield town centers nearby and multiple options for NYC transportation including jitney service to Glen Ridge Station and easy access to Watchung Station.
