For the first time in more than a century, this classic colonial is ready for its next owners! Owned by the same family since 1905, 44 Valley Way offers 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths across three levels, topped by a brand-new roof. The finished third floor holds two of the bedrooms, giving you room for guests or a home office. Below, this property offers a full basement along with a dedicated workshop area, recreational room, and full bath. Let's talk about location, and it's difficult to beat this one. You're within close distance of both downtown West Orange and Montclair, with their restaurants and shops, and minutes from Essex Green and West Orange Plaza for everyday errands. Nearby public transportation and distance from NYC makes this an easy fit for commuters. The home is zoned for Redwood Elementary, a National Blue Ribbon award winner. Homes held by one family this long rarely come to market. Don't miss the chance to make this one yours.
