187 Bay Ave, Bloomfield Twp., NJ 07003

Property Description

Built in 1940, this three-bedroom, two-full-bath side hall colonial makes a beautiful first impression. Mature landscaping frames the house and wraps the entire property, and a charming blue stone walkway leads you to a gracious portico that welcomes you inside. Newly refinished hardwood floors flow through a freshly painted interior. The renovated kitchen features a coffee bar area that offers storage and walk-in pantry potential. The bathrooms have been fully renovated with spa-like finishes. Start the morning with radiant heated floors, and end the day with a soak in the jacuzzi tub and a towel from the warmer. The solarium is the heart of the home, a sun-drenched room that opens onto an oversized, level backyard. Beyond the lawn lies a wooded area that offers privacy and a serene view. It's a peaceful backyard retreat that feels miles from everything, made for summer dinners, a serious garden, or a slow afternoon with a book. The finished lower level adds the second full bath, a workout area, laundry, and a utility room, giving you flexible space that adapts to the way you live. Central air keeps the house comfortable year-round, one-car garage (currently converted to a storage room), and double-wide four car driveway. Brookdale Park, beautiful Walnut Street neighborhood shops and restaurants, and the Bay Street train station are all minutes from the front door, where a Glen Ridge gas lantern lights the way home.
