28 Waterbury Rd

Just a quick 0.3-mile stroll to Watchung Plaza's coffee spots, indie shops, fitness studios and the NYC train/bus, this four-bedroom Dudley van Antwerp stunner nails that City-meets-suburb sweet spot. Original Arts & Crafts character shines throughout beginning with amber bullseye glass at the entry, pristine leaded windows throughout, and rich natural chestnut woodwork. The first floor flows effortlessly with a gracious foyer, eat-in kitchen with walk-in pantry, living room with a wood-burning fireplace, dining room wrapped in gorgeous chestnut trim, and a family room that opens to a cozy screened porch plus a powder room. Upstairs, find four bedrooms, including a primary suite with en-suite bath, a second bedroom with its own half bath, and two more bedrooms served by a full hall bath. A walk-up third floor offers loads of potential for a studio, play space, or whatever your imagination dreams up. Recent upgrades include a newer kitchen, baths, roof and more. Kick back outside with a patio overlooking the deep, perennial-gardens and a rare three-car garage ready for bikes, boards, or weekend projects. Historic soul, modern updates, and a tranquil location that still keeps your city habits alive.
