Inside one finds three stories of generous living space including seven bedrooms that are versatile in their use, with other possibilities being a den, library, office, music room, studio, exercise room and more. From the striking entry foyer with painted mahogany wainscoted panels and a magnificent wood staircase, enter into the primary entertainment center of the home comprised of a living room with French doors, formal dining room and family room/ parlor, all with fireplaces, original hardwood floors, and original floor-to-ceiling windows with leaded glass. Other incredible highlights include beautiful built-ins, south-east and south-west exposure ensuring a full day of sunlight, and a turn-of-the-20th-Century Italianate tower added as a sunroom.
A large country kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows, a Dutch door to the backyard and freestanding gas-burning cast-iron stove for extra winter heating is just as comfortable and inviting. This wonderful home also features three full and one half baths, a convenient second-floor laundry room, a third floor with three large rooms and two full baths that can serve as a spacious retreat for guests, a new Weil-McLain high-efficiency furnace-boiler, a new main water line to street, plus an upgraded main electrical panel.
Topping the appeal is a prime location minutes from the New Jersey Transit train station and express bus to NY Port Authority. The address is also just blocks from shops, Plainfield Public Library, and Olmstead-designed County Park with public tennis courts.
