Welcome to 126 Manns Ave in Newark — a beautifully maintained Cape Cod offering timeless charm, thoughtful updates, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features hardwood flooring throughout and a flexible layout. The first floor includes a formal living room with a cozy wood-burning fireplace and custom built-in bookshelves, along with a sun-filled dining room complete with chair rail molding and additional built-in corner cabinets that add classic character. The updated kitchen, renovated just three years ago, is a true highlight and features quartz countertops, tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, maple cabinets, gas cooking, and a ceiling fan. All appliances are included, making this home truly move-in ready. The main level also offers a spacious family room with direct access to a screened-in porch with a ceiling fan — the perfect place to relax before stepping out to the rear paver patio overlooking the beautifully landscaped backyard filled with native perennial plantings. A first-floor bedroom and full bathroom with hexagon tile floors and an oversized bathtub provide convenient main-level living options. Upstairs, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms and a renovated full bath with tile floors and a frameless glass tiled shower. One of the bedrooms opens to an impressively large storage room, offering exceptional bonus space rarely found in homes of this style. Additional features include an extended driveway, a welcoming paver patio at the front of the home, and an unfinished basement with professional waterproofing. Recent updates include a brand-new electric panel, renovated bathrooms completed within the last two to three years, and a new roof on the main portion of the home. This well-maintained property blends classic Cape Cod charm with modern upgrades, offering beautiful interior spaces, abundant natural light, and thoughtfully designed outdoor living areas in a desirable Newark location.
