Location, Location, Location. When it comes to buying a home, you can change many things-but you can't change the location. That's why choosing the right location is one of the most important decisions a home buyer can make. Welcome to this exceptionally versatile 6-bedroom, 2-bath home located in Fords, right on the Woodbridge Proper border. Actually, the home is located on the Woodbridge side of the Turnpike bridge. This property offers an outstanding floorplan across the first and second floors, providing flexibility for large households, multi-generational living, or anyone seeking abundant space. The home features two-zone heating, with baseboard hot water heat on the first floor and forced hot air on the second floor, giving you comfort and efficiency throughout. A full attic with pull-down stairs adds even more storage options. Storage is a true highlight here. You'll find ample closet space throughout the home, plus an enormous full unfinished basement a blank canvas ready for your vision. Whether you choose to finish the entire space or create a partial recreation area while preserving room for a utility or workshop, the possibilities are endless. A one-car attached garage and generous off-street parking make daily living convenient for multiple vehicles. This polished suburban home has a lush & sunlit backyard retreat with a fire pit, and a garden for you "green thumbers". The location is exceptional. You're just around the corner from the Woodbridge Community Center, and within close proximity to Woodbridge Mall, Wegmans, and numerous shopping and dining options. Commuters will appreciate easy access to the NJ Turnpike, Garden State Parkway, and major local roadways. Nearby, the bustling downtown Woodbridge business district offers fine dining, cultural restaurants, local markets, pharmacies, barbershops, salons, pizza parlors, brew pubs, and fitness studios. Houses of Worship and public and private schools are also conveniently close. Subject to seller's relocation.
