60 Brook Dr | Watchung Boro

$1,199,000 | 6 Beds | 5 Baths (4 Full, 1 Half)

Rarely does a home of this caliber come to market. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Watchung, this 6BR/4.5BA home offers over 4,000 sq ft (per tax records) of refined living space, park-like grounds, and a private tennis/pickleball court - all within an hr from Midtown Manhattan via NJ Transit. Imagine morning coffee on the deck as sunlight filters through the tree canopy. Cocktails by the fireplace in the family room (feat. wet bar). Weekend tennis matches steps from your back door. This is the lifestyle 60 Brook Drive delivers, every single day. The first floor features: formal living and dining rooms, a fireside kitchen & casual eating space that flows to the deck, family room, laundry and a full bath. The second floor has a primary suite with six closets, private balcony, and it's own full bath. Five other spacious bedrooms and two add'l full baths round out the second floor. Hardwood floors throughout. The finished lower level has a half bath & provides space for a gym, lounge, or recreation with sliders to the backyard. Two-car garage and add'l parking. Top-rated Watchung Hills Regional schools serve the district. The heavy lifting is done: approx. $200K in upgrades since 2021 including GAF Timberline roof, all windows replaced (Anderson), Bosch heat pumps (also provide cooling), Navien combo boiler, upgraded electrical panel, and well pump. Two owners in sixty-two years. One extraordinary home. So much more life to be lived in it. GSMLS 4036148
