Coming Soon….THE WAIT IS ALMOST OVER AND THE RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ENTER THE COVETED MORRISTOWN REAL ESTATE MARKET IS HERE! This charming victorian awaits its next chapter at 47 Sussex Ave in the heart of Morristown! Cherished by the same family for generations, this “diamond in the rough” is brimming with original character — soaring gables, classic clapboard siding, a welcoming front porch, and vintage trim details rarely found today. Yes, it’s a true fixer-upper, but the bones and charm are all here, ready for a visionary buyer to restore its shine. Enjoy a walkable location near downtown Morristown’s shops, restaurants, NJ Transit, and top-rated schools. Bring your contractor, your imagination, and make this beloved family home your own. Sold strictly as-is. Opportunities like this — full of history, character, and potential — don’t come along often. NOTE: This property is being sold strictly, As-Is/Where-Is. Buyer is responsible for paying ALL transfer taxes, as well as obtaining any inspections and/or certifications required by the municipality and/or state. Buyers must verify additional possibilities and do ALL due diligence directly with the township. FYI…..SHOWINGS WILL TAKE PLACE ON SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 DURING A PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE (exact time TBA) WHERE ALL BUYERS WILL BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO WALK-THROUGH.
