Located in the sought-after Putnam Manor neighborhood of Union, this move-in ready Colonial balances classic curb appeal with contemporary design. The journey begins on the covered front porch that sets a welcoming tone. Inside, the main level feels expansive, anchored by rich hardwood floors and an open-concept flow that connects the living and dining areas directly to the heart of the home. The kitchen is a standout illuminated by modern recessed lighting that keeps the space bright at any hour. The second level offers three comfortable bedrooms and a spa-inspired bathroom that truly breaks the mold, boasting floor-to-ceiling marble-style tile, luxe gold fixtures, and a high-tech rainfall shower system with massage jets. If you need storage, the spacious walk-up attic provides a massive footprint for all your seasonal gear. For even more living space, the fully finished basement serves as a family room or "flex" space, complete with its own laundry area and a second full bathroom, adding incredible value and convenience. Outside you'll find a long driveway that leads to an oversized detached 2-car garage. The paved patio is the ultimate spot for summer hosting or weekend relaxation. For the commuter, the location is unbeatable you are just a half-mile from the Union Train Station and Kean University, with the bus routes of Morris Avenue just minutes away.
