78 Roland Avenue-SOLD



Welcome home to this stylishly remodeled and cared for 3BR colonial!  This super cute, move-in-ready home has all the privacy and charm of a single family home while having the space and modern convenience of a classic townhome…without the HOA!  It features many flexible rooms, brand new ultra high efficiency windows throughout, and a new Trane split ductless AC system. The open concept first floor has a beautifully updated Kitchen, Dining area, and Living Room that artfully blends period details with a modern aesthetic. An inviting entryway and separate First Floor Bedroom with access to the backyard complete this floor.  The second floor has an updated full bathroom and two sizable bedrooms with another bonus room that could be used as a nursery space, small bedroom, or office. The finished attic, currently accessed by ceiling portal, is a blank canvas that can potentially be converted into livable space. The basement features laundry, great storage space, a newly renovated half bathroom, and another newly bonus room, perfect for home gym, with walkout stairs to the backyard. The lovely outdoor space includes a surprisingly big, fully fenced in yard, patio, and newly installed driveway with Belgian block. Amazing location that is close to both Maplewood and South Orange downtowns and trains, schools, parks, and all the new shops and restaurants on Valley St!

second FLOOR Bedroom & Spaces

The office nook on the second floor is just the perfect bonus room with lots of light and not feeling “caged”.

The bathroom really became a place to go to relax and pamper – the spacious infinity shower with mosaic-tiled floor and high flow shower head. The floating cabinet giving the space a breathability and modern touch. The combination of recessed and vanity lighting to create a bright, happy energy.

 

BASEMENT

 

Outdoor Space

The already fenced-in yard offers privacy and security, with a perfectly balanced backyard offering easy maintainability with space for BBQ’s with the kids and dogs running around.
 

FAVORITE FEATURES

The location! Set in a diverse community with easy access to NYC direct train, strong schools, great job opportunities, outdoor space, the Village and nearby towns for shopping and going out to eat. 

The neighbors are fantastic.  Friendly.  Always willing to help one another.  Respectful of privacy and quiet.

The office nook on the second floor was an ideal bonus room to get just the right amount of light and to not feel trapped in one of those tiny home offices.

The attic space.  It offers a full height space that would be ideal for another bedroom/office.
