384 Essex Ave, Bloomfield Twp. NJ 07003-2813

Essex Avenue. If you know Bloomfield, you know this is the street - right on the Glen Ridge border, around the corner from Montclair's much loved Walnut Street, and just blocks from Brookdale Park. This 3 bed, 2 bath Side Hall Colonial has the kind of warmth and easy flow people are always looking for, plus a long list of smart upgrades already done for you. The first floor offers great living space, a screened-in porch that's basically begging for coffee and summer night hangs, and a newly refreshed kitchen with updated cabinetry, backsplash, flooring, and finishes that make the whole space feel fresh and current. Upstairs are 3 good sized bedrooms and a large main bath, with beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout. Basement - done and done; including 2nd full bath. And all those updates? They're the expensive, important kind: new windows throughout, brand new cooling systems French drains, sump pump, new garage and driveway. Even the washer and dryer are new! There's also a walk-up attic offering excellent storage and future expansion potential. All this just down the street from Montclair's Walnut St with Farmer's Market, brewery and great eats. And right around the corner for NYC transportation, jitney service, and the trails, fields, and green space of Brookdale Park.
