This classic Colonial was built in 1985 when the neighborhood of 'Deer Ridge' was established. The traditional design of this four-bedroom home is universally appealing and timeless. The residence is beautifully situated on a one-plus acre (1.28) lot in the heart of one of Mendham Borough's most coveted locations. Flowering trees and manicured shrubs, along with established specimen plantings, accent the front and back lawns. A charming red brick walkway leads from a paved driveway to the front entrance. Wooden privacy fencing with gates flank either side of the backyard and join a neighboring split rail fence outlining a portion of the back lawn.  The front door opens into a wide, central foyer that adjoins the formal living and dining rooms. Both of these rooms are bathed in natural light and overlook the front lawn. The circular floor plan continues to a wonderful family room with a wood-burning fireplace and two walls of floor-to-ceiling bookshelves that are accented with crown and dentil moldings. A powder room on the first floor is conveniently located near a large country kitchen. Sliding glass doors in the kitchen provide views of the back lawn and access to a wide Trex deck overlooking the lawn and garden. The stairs and a ramp lead down from the deck to a lush lawn, providing an ideal venue for dining and entertaining during warmer months. A large laundry room behind the kitchen also adjoins the deck. Tucked behind the kitchen is a private office with two walls of custom bookshelves over cabinetry. Access to the attached two-car garage is located in the hallway between the kitchen and office.
