Walk to All From Center Hall Colonial
For Sale in Chatham Borough

In your search for New Jersey real estate you may have heard about a home’s “walkability factor,” which is a way to determine just how favorable a home’s location is to walking. An updated center hall Colonial gets high points for its walk score since it is located a short distance from Turpin’s Chatham Office as well as walking distance to the train station, downtown shops and restaurants.

A picture perfect Colonial in every way, it is located in a quiet tree-lined neighborhood of other gracious homes, adding to the serenity of the landscaped .19-acre setting.  Built in 1946, the three bedroom, one-and-one-half bath layout has been carefully updated through the years, yet maintains much of its mid-century appeal.  Detailed moldings, built-in cabinetry and lustrous hardwood floors define character-filled gathering spaces on the main floor including the formal living room, formal dining room and den.  A newly updated kitchen is fitted with stainless steel appliances—including a wine cooler—sparkling granite counters and a tile floor.  Casual get-togethers can be enjoyed in a cheerful family room on the finished lower level. 

Upstairs, a charming window seat at the top of the staircase is an inviting spot for reading a favorite book.  Three bedrooms with spacious closets and a full bath grace the second story, where there is access to the walk-up attic. 

Exterior upgrades include new windows, a new driveway edged in Belgium block, a newer paver front walkway and rear patio plus a newer roof and central air conditioning system. 

Keeping a home’s walkability factor in mind appeals to a growing number of buyers who are interested in the physical, social, economic and environmental benefits that come from leaving their car in the driveway. 
Not many New Jersey homes for sale offer all the amenities that this Chatham house provides, from its enhanced walkability to its sophisticated interior.  For the homebuyer who wants to be in the heart of everything Chatham offers, yet still have a quiet back yard for outdoor entertaining, this Colonial is very accommodating.
