Storybook colonial just steps from Monmouth College, this inviting 4-bedroom, 4-bath home blends classic character with major big-ticket upgrades and modern comfort. With three wood-burning fireplaces, rich wood paneling, and real hardwood floors, it feels like a cozy picture-book retreat the moment you walk in. A new roof in 2025, plus new central air and water heater in 2025, provides worry-free ownership for years ahead. Newer windows (2018) improve energy efficiency and comfort in every season. All newer appliances, including dishwasher (2024), refrigerator (2023), washer, and dryer (2022), make move-in day simple and stress-free. Approximately 2,300 sq. ft. of finished living space offers room to spread out for the whole family. Having two separate family/living areas provide options for a formal living room and a cozy TV or game room. Main-floor bedroom and bath are ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or a convenient home office setup. Three additional bedrooms and two baths upstairs give everyone their own private retreat. One-stall attached garage offers covered parking and easy access in all weather. The backyard provides additional space to play, relax, and entertain. A custom pergola creates a shaded spot for outdoor dining or evening cocktails, while the children's playset makes the yard a ready-made haven for families. Relax in the hot tub (2021) after a long day-perfect for unwinding under the stars. A handy storage shed keeps yard tools, toys, and seasonal décor neatly tucked away so the large yard stays open and inviting. Arguably one of the most charming streets in Monmouth, close to Monmouth College and nestled in a desirable residential neighborhood, you won't want to miss an opportunity to purchase this one-of-a-kind home.
