Welcome to a classic Dutch Colonial offering timeless charm, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional location in one of Bergen County's most sought-after neighborhoods. Built in 1931 and lovingly maintained, this inviting home features beautifully refinished hardwood floors, freshly painted bedrooms, and a bright, comfortable layout designed for everyday living.
The spacious living room showcases an original wood-burning fireplace, original inlaid hardwood floors, and a graceful staircase with wrought-iron detailing. Original leaded stained-glass windows throughout the home add extraordinary period character found in very few properties today. A sun-filled family room and a separate sunroom with private patio access round out the first floor, offering versatile spaces for relaxing or entertaining.
The kitchen features white raised-panel cabinetry, granite countertops with a bold natural stone backsplash, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a French-door refrigerator (2025), gas range, microwave (2021), and dishwasher (2021). A sunny breakfast and dining area adjacent to the kitchen offers garden views — perfect for morning coffee.
Both full bathrooms have been beautifully remodeled. The first-floor bath (remodeled 2025) features a walk-in shower with tile and a warm wood floating vanity. The second-floor bath (remodeled 2022) offers a soaking tub, updated finishes, and a modern vanity. All three bedrooms offer gleaming refinished hardwood floors (2025) and excellent natural light.
Major systems provide true peace of mind: new roof (2022), new central AC with attic air handler (2024), crawl space fully encapsulated with a new dehumidifier (2024), gas steam boiler (serviced 2024), and a Generac whole-house gas generator. Outdoors, enjoy a large private backyard with a bluestone patio, outdoor seating area, underground sprinkler system, and a detached one-car garage.
The location is hard to beat. Roosevelt Elementary School is directly adjacent to the property. The NJ Transit bus stop is around the corner, and River Edge Station provides direct service to Hoboken and New York Penn Station. Paramus shopping, dining, and major stores are all within easy reach.
