Description
Opportunity and tremendous potential awaits at this custom Colonial home in Scotch Plains, offering 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, with hardwood flooring throughout. The home is well maintained but could benefit from a facelift, making it an excellent opportunity to renovate, update, or create your dream home now or a little down the road. Estate property being sold strictly 'as-is', including the wood-burning fireplace (also sold as-is). The home also features central air conditioning and a spacious layout with plenty of potential for modern updates. Situated on a corner lot with fencing, the property includes two garages and generous outdoor space. Perfect for first-time buyers, investors, or contractors, this home offers the chance to build equity in a desirable neighborhood where renovated and newly built homes often sell for over $1M. Conveniently located near the Scotch Plains/Fanwood Train Station offering commuter access by rail or bus to NYC. Close to major highways including U.S. Route 22, Interstate 78, Garden State Parkway, and Interstate 287. The home is also located within the highly regarded Scotch Plains-Fanwood Public Schools district, known for its Blue Ribbon recognized schools. A fantastic opportunity to update and personalize a solid home in one of Union County's most desirable communities. This one won't last.
