Overview

Description

Welcome home to Rumson. Just blocks from parks, the river, restaurants and top schools, this charming Colonial is full of original cottage character. Built with true craftsmanship, it offers cozy rooms, rich period details and warmth, new construction can't replicate. Relax on the covered front porch. The bright eat-in kitchen features a breakfast island, ample storage and sliding doors to a private garden bursting with flowers. A full bath and bonus room off of the kitchen with built-ins can be a butler's pantry or office. The dining and living rooms showcase wainscoting and decorative moldings. Three bedrooms and a full bath complete the second floor. A detached garage and basement with laundry round out the package. Own this corner on a tree-lined street-a true neighborhood.
