Dear Future Homeowners

152 Prospect Street is just about as iconic a home as they come in South Orange NJ. While the Sellers are so sad to leave, I know that they will be happy to hand it over to a new loving family who appreciates all that this amazing house has to offer. They enjoyed so many family moments at 152 Prospect Street over the past few years - sunsets on the porch, playing in the yard, hosting get-togethers in the kitchen before COVID, and decorating for the holidays. You will love waving to your kids from the porch as their school bus passes the front on its way to one SOMSD's many great elementary schools. And you will love the amazing view from the third floor office - enjoy hunkering down in a snow storm, staying cozy and warm with the heat provided by the amazing vintage radiators. This is truly a special house with a space for everyone to retreat to, and amazing rooms for convivial gathering. One of the things we love best about this house is the community. 152 Prospect is at the helm of a tight-knit circle of neighbors on Village Road, Tichenor and Kilburn. There are many young children and adults of diverse backgrounds that make up the Vil-Kil family and you will love getting together for porch drinks, neighborhood olympics, art bender activities and impromptu play-dates. South Orange itself is such an amazing community of people from all walks of life. The Sellers will truly miss walking into town and seeing friends and neighbors - grabbing a bagel or ice cream or hopping on a quick train to the city for a night out. Both the current owners and previous Sellers shared that being stewards of such an architectural icon in our village will afford you so many opportunities: befriending people just by way of them walking by, waving and asking questions about the house. People are always so curious and complimentary, asking what veggies are growing in the front yard and asking what changes the Sellers might have made to it during their ownership - this time around, it is a new designer kitchen and the always coveted central air conditioning! We hope that you enjoy this unique and wonderful property as much as the previous owners have.
