About This Home
Start your story here in sought-after Mt. Airy Estates. Offered for the first time by its original owner after 57 years, this classic center hall colonial sits on nearly an acre in one of Basking Ridge's most established neighborhoods and offers a rare opportunity to create something truly your own. With approximately 2,807 square feet, the home features a traditional layout with spacious living and dining rooms, a comfortable family room with fireplace, and a large eat-in kitchen overlooking the backyard. Natural light pours through oversized windows, and the generously sized rooms and huge closets throughout provide a sense of space that is hard to find. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms including a primary suite with private bath and excellent closet space. The home has been well maintained mechanically over the years, including HVAC replacement in 2018, hot water heater replacement in 2024, and a whole-house generator. While cosmetic updates are needed, the property presents an exceptional chance to renovate and personalize in a premier location. The unfinished basement offers additional storage or future finishing potential, while the expansive yard provides room to garden, play, entertain, or simply enjoy the peaceful setting. Conveniently located near top-rated schools, parks, shopping, dining, highways, and NJ Transit rail service to NYC, this is an opportunity to bring your vision to life in a neighborhood where homes are cherished for generations.
