Countryside Center Hall Colonial

Situated in the desirable Countryside section of Berkeley Heights, this exceptional center-hall colonial enjoys enormous curb appeal. Resting on about a half acre of beautifully landscaped property, this fine home is nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac, while shopping, recreation, top rated schools and NYC commuter trains are only minutes from your front door.

Illustrating just what ‘move-in’ condition really means, the open concept floor plan showcases gleaming hardwood floors, designer colors and abundant natural light. Entertain with confidence, as the living room flows into the family room which opens effortlessly into the new chef’s kitchen, and the dining room is poised to host your next dinner party.

An office or possible guest room is located off the kitchen and adjacent to a full bath and laundry room. Four bedrooms occupy the second level, enjoying pleasant treetop views and plenty of closet storage. The master suite includes a dressing area with access to a walk-in closet and entry to a full master bath.
