Nestled in the sought-after Van Wyck Brooks section of Plainfield, once known as Presidential Way, this expansive raised and extended ranch sits on approximately 1.32 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. This home showcases exceptional craftsmanship with steel I-beams, oversized wood beams, solid brick construction, and enduring materials rarely found today. Offering 5 bedrooms, 3 full and 2 half baths, the layout is ideal for multiple private living zones, featuring a first-floor bedroom suite, a flexible west wing (formerly a dental office), and a finished basement with multiple private living zones. The gracious entry leads to a large, light-filled living room with expansive windows, gleaming floors, and a gas fireplace. The formal dining room features parquet floors, built-ins, designer wallpaper, and a striking solid brass chandelier. 3/4-inch Brazilian cherry floors extend through the main living areas, hallways, office, and select bedrooms. The lower-level family room adds flexible living space. The updated eat-in kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, quality cabinetry, and a breakfast area. A screened porch overlooks private, park-like grounds with mature plantings. Additional features include a new roof and gutters (2020), two-zone hot water heating, copper plumbing, central air (west wing), wall units (east wing), an oversized 2-car garage and a driveway that can hold 4-5 cars. Close proximity to the bus and train station going to NYC.
