Welcome to 5A Center St, a 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Craftsman-style home set on a quarter-acre lot in one of Edison's most dynamic and rapidly appreciating pockets. With 2,382 square feet of living space, a finished basement, and a character-rich interior anchored by hardwood floors and a stunning river rock fireplace, this home delivers substantial square footage and timeless style at a compelling price point. The primary bedroom suite has been freshly upgraded with new paint, new carpet, and a renovated ensuite bath move-in ready comfort where it counts most. The finished basement adds flexible living or workspace, while the attached tandem garage accommodates two vehicles with room to spare. Outside, the expansive, tree-lined backyard offers rare outdoor space in a neighborhood where land like this is increasingly hard to find. Location-savvy buyers will recognize what this zip code represents. Six new construction homes on this block are commanding prices north of $1 million a clear signal of where the neighborhood's ceiling is heading. Edison checks every box of what the market calls a Big 3 community: under an hour to Manhattan, NJ Transit rail access via Metuchen or MetroPark stations, and consistently top-rated schools. Add direct access to Route 1, I-287, and the NJ Turnpike, and the commuter calculus here is virtually unbeatable. This is an opportunity to buy into a rising market before the comps fully catch up.
