About 26 Home St

HERE YOU GO - IMAGINE OWNING THIS CLASSIC METUCHEN HOME with character, charm, and beauty on a tree-lined street with sidewalks, close to "One of America's Greatest Downtowns 2023," where you can enjoy coffee, ice cream, or pizza - located in a top school district - and convenient to the direct commuter train to New York. This spacious home includes 4 bedrooms, 2 full and 1 half baths, a partly finished basement, and a one-car detached garage. Built in 1922 with classic architectural details, this home offers high ceilings, wide baseboards, hardwood floors, a beautiful fireplace, and there's more: it's been tastefully expanded and renovated and offers you a large family room with windows overlooking the backyard, light, bright sun porch, striking owners suite, 2 furnaces, newer roof, and central air. Outside through the archway, you will be transformed into a magical garden recently featured on the Edison "Art in the Garden Tour," where stepping stones lead to a deck, patio, and dining area, lush trees, bushes, and plants for color all summer long - and a sparkling water garden surrounded by natural river rocks, and a babbling waterfall, leaving you feeling like you are in nature with a sense of relaxation and mindfulness after a busy day. It's easy to see, and a quick closing is OK!
