    What's special

    Welcome to 537 Essex Road in the Borough of Norwood! This beloved home has just been through a "refresh" to include a new kitchen, updates in the bathroom, and new paint and flooring. The sunny Living Room/Dining Room combination is perfect for entertaining. The galley kitchen has new granite counter tops, tile back splash, new cabinets and sink, plus a new gas stove. For convenience, there are two bedrooms plus a full bath also on the first floor. The second floor has another two bedrooms plus a full hall bath. There is a large storage space on the second floor that can be used as-is or converted into an office. Unlike some of the nearby properties with crawl spaces, this home has a full usable basement. The current owner used it for laundry and storage but the possibilities are many. The home has a spacious patio/carport on the side and a quiet rear fenced yard for outdoor enjoyment. In addition to ample driveway parking, you will find street parking as well. There is the popular Norwood Athletic Field right around the corner. Norwood Borough is close to shopping and public transportation, the airport and the city.
