Half bath with updated fixtures. -Pantry has unique, spacious design. When opening the pantry door you can turn and walk half way down to the basement. There is a full size door there allowing you walk out onto the deck, or continue down to the basement. Very helpful when bringing items in for basement storage or placing long term perishable items to the basement fridge/freezer. Second Floor: -Brand-new carpet throughout with acoustical sound deadening and insulating underlayment. -"Y" style staircase is located in the rear of the home. Making your front door entrance uncluttered by a staircase in front. This was a feature that we, and others really seemed to love. -Three bedrooms.

Attic: -Unfinished, with original wide pine flooring and plenty of storage space. Attic is a large as the 1st and 2nd floor. It is pitched, so you can stand up with ample room unless you skirt the perimeter where the roof line pitches down. -Super easy access to attic. 3rd bedroom has full size door that opens to wide staircase right up the attic. No pull downs, or hassles. Just open the door and walk up. Exterior Features Yard: -Fully fenced for privacy and security, featuring an 8-foot privacy fence with double slats for extra privacy and security. -Leveled, Three-tiered backyard with a wrap around deck, grass area, and a landscaped section showcasing a 100+ year-old cherry tree. -Includes a fully enclosed storage shed. Attached to the back of the full size garage. -Hardscape 2/3 of backyard. Slate flagstone and hard scape slate mini walls surround this feature. We hung hammocks and swings for our little ones when we lived there. Plus, when the Cherry Tree blossoms it is a thing of beauty. We believe the tree to be older than the house. It is deep in the backyard. The roots are very far from the home, it is a awesome feature of the backyard. -The absolute rear of the yard has a 4-season covered storage shed for tools, lawn mower, etc. It even has "dumb waiter" esque doors. Our little one used it like a little clubhouse, with "secret" windows that have pulleys. Easy way to dump out mulch or tools if you are inside and want to get goods out of the space. All three sections of the backyard are level to the eye. Barn Brown 1 foot raised wrap around porch (with privacy curtain inlets), step down onto the grass section. This is where the white picket fence is, that leads to the driveway, followed by the 1 foot raised hardscape area. Great backyard to entertain in. Garage: -Renovated 1.5-car garage with a new automatic door, remote control, and programmable access panel. Easily fits a large SUV, or a smaller car with room for recreational toys. Last tenant was a powersports fanatic and kept ATV's, DirtBikes, and a DuneBuggy in the garage. It has been cleaned and emptied. Use it as you see fit. -Additional garage Side door for secondary access if you do not want to move the car while using the garage, and plenty of storage for tools, equipment, or recreational vehicles. - Driveway is your own. With the garage you can fit 5-6 cars if you are having company. -The side of garage is where garbage pails are located. North Plainfield and Grand Sanitation COME UP to the garage every week. No more remembering to bring the garbage down and to the curb. They bring it down for you, both garbage and recycling. One less thing to remember. Curb Appeal: -Elevated position with a stunning grey block stone facade and steps. -Hardscaped front yard with tiered stone landscaping. -Hardscaping can be seen in Zillow listing or on Google Maps. Gives a very strong impression, and IMO has the best curb appeal on the block. -Also acts as a solicitation deterrent. It's elevated stance is fantastic for mitigation of water (never had a problem with water). Also, given the elevation. Most street salesman will skip the house and move one. For context, you can only see the top of someone's head as they walk past if you are standing inside the front door. Most people wind up using the back door for day to day in and out. Additional Details -Newly painted...EVERYTHING inside: walls, doors, and moldings throughout. From floor to ceiling, and everything in-between. It has been repainted by professionals. Base moldings, window casements, the whole 9. -Gas and electric utility options. Gas line can be used for drier if you want to run two driers. We have hookups for both gas and electric 220V in the basement, where the clothing machines are located. We found electric to dry faster and be cheaper. We have purchased brand new washer and dryer. They are hooked up and ready to go. -Verizon FIOS is pre-installed for high-speed internet. Fastest internet in NJ. All set up for you, ready to go. -Close to amenities: 2 blocks from Route 22, 5 minutes to the train station, and a short walk to the bus stop on Mountain Ave. -Home is located 3 or 4 houses from Mountain Ave. If you are familiar with the area. The famous "Clock Tower" house is located about 7 houses down from the home. Safe, and historic area of North Plainfield/Watchung.

Rental Terms -Security Deposit: 1.5x monthly rent. -Pets: Small pets allowed with a $500 non-refundable deposit. -No additional fees beyond standard income verification, proof of employment, and credit report all done through Zillow.
