Set back on 1.50 level acres on a tree-lined Warren Township street, this Cape Cod pairs classic charm with a rare bonus: five covered garage bays. An attached 2-car garage sits beside a detached 3-bay garage topped by a full walk-up attic, with room for cars, hobbies and storage alike. Step onto the covered front porch and into a sun-washed living room where hardwood floors flow toward a stone-front fireplace. The updated kitchen is the heart of the home, with warm wood cabinetry, stone counters, stainless appliances including a gas cooktop, wall oven and built-in refrigerator, and a skylit breakfast nook with a built-in hutch. French doors open to a rear deck with a pergola-covered section, the spot for morning coffee while the open lawn stretches toward mature trees. A first-floor primary bedroom with hardwood floors and a full bath complete the main level. Upstairs, two bedrooms with hardwood floors and skylights share a renovated full bath with a glass-enclosed stall shower, and a skylit stair hall fills the landing with daylight. Forced-air heat and central air plus a ductless mini-split keep every season comfortable. A full unfinished basement with laundry adds storage and possibilities. A new driveway, a wood-fenced yard area and public water round out the package, all in the Watchung Hills Regional High School district.
