Property Description

Elegance, history, and thoughtful design converge in this one-of-a-kind Maplewood treasure uniquely conceived by Edward C. Balch, the visionary developer known as the "Father of Maplewood." This lovingly curated 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath Center Hall Colonial has been beautifully updated while honoring its remarkable origins, showcasing exquisite millwork and moldings, gleaming hardwood floors, and an alluring screened-in back porch. Perfectly suited for entertaining, the eat-in kitchen features honed quartzite countertops and stainless steel appliances, all within a layout that flows effortlessly from room to room. The second floor is anchored by a gracious primary suite featuring a generous walk-in closet - easily converted back to a fifth bedroom - plus a beautifully updated primary bath with stunning tile work. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete this floor. The third floor is a retreat unto itself, with a spacious bedroom, full bath, and expansive lounge area bathed in natural light. The lower level features a dedicated gym, craft room, and generous storage, with endless potential for a media room. French drains and sump pumps offer added peace of mind. All of this, just two blocks from vibrant Maplewood Village with celebrated cafes, restaurants, boutique shops, and a direct NJ Transit train to NYC.
