556 Pine Pl, Marmora, NJ 08223

This beautiful Cape Cod home on a corner lot blends charming exterior curb appeal with contemporary interior style. Settled in a friendly, family-filled neighborhood, this home has been lovingly and considerately cared for. Upon entering, the living room makes an impression with its easy-maintenance natural gas fireplace insert in a beautiful decorative stone accent. This house features a fully renovated kitchen with new white shaker cabinets and extended granite counter spaces. The kitchen stretches the full length of the main area of the house to an open dining room. Windows and glass doors provide abundant natural light and make this an excellent center space for the home. The main floor also boasts a recently renovated contemporary full bathroom and a first-floor bedroom (or bonus entertainment or office space). Built-in drawers in bedrooms make smart, efficient use of space and save from the need for additional storage furniture. The renovations on this property are more than mere surface improvements. The electrical system was upgraded to a 200-amp service in 2020. A new well and pump were completed only two years ago. The solar panels were added in 2020 and are fully owned, not leased. With the heating and cooling system being half electric, that solar system provides substantial savings. (Ask the listing agent for the utility records and their low-cost history.) Those who own or intend to own an electric vehicle can extend these savings and reduce their environmental impact even further by utilizing the recently installed level 2 high-power 32-amp vehicle charger. The hot water heater is only 3 years old, the driveway was poured and sealed in 2021, and there are other countless minor improvements throughout the entire house. The current owners made many smart decisions and upgrades in the approximately 5 years they have lived in this house. The home flows beautifully from the large kitchen-dining central hub frontwards into the living room but then always back-facing through large window and glass door into a yard that has something for everyone. Enjoy dinner outside or entertaining on the raised deck, swimming or lounging by the in-ground heated pool (with new pump), relaxing and unwinding in the year-round hot tub, or playing with your children and pets in the sunny grass area. There is great privacy in the fully fenced yard and something for everyone to enjoy. Now that spring is fully here, the mature landscaping and active flower beds accentuate the quaint beauty of the Cape Cod house and yard. This Cape Cod home offers so much: a picturesque property in a great location, renovations and improvements throughout the home, a great neighborhood, and a fantastic outdoor space with all the amenities needed for private enjoyment or entertainment.
