Description
Step into comfort and convenience in this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath Colonial nestled in the community of Cambridge Gardens. From top to bottom, this two-story gem has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully updated—all that’s missing is you! As you enter, you're greeted by easy-care waterproof Lighthouse Point Rich Hickory vinyl flooring installed throughout in 2022—no carpet, no hassle. The front living room with bay window flows seamlessly into the dining area, creating a warm and welcoming space for everyday living or lively entertaining. The updated kitchen is a true standout with granite countertops, upgraded cabinetry, and a perfect view into the cozy family room, where a gas brick fireplace and classic mantle set the scene for relaxing evenings. Love to entertain? Step right out of the french doors to your fully fenced backyard and spacious deck, ideal for summer BBQs and crisp fall nights under the stars. A stylish powder room and rustic wood-accented staircase wall add just the right touch of character to the main floor. Upstairs, you'll find three generous bedrooms, each with ample closet space, and a clean, modern full bathroom. The unfinished basement offers unlimited potential—think storage, workshop, home gym, or future expansion—and offers dedicated laundry area. Top it all off with a one-car garage with a newer insulated garage door and a fresh paint throughout in 2023. A prime location just minutes from Route 1 and 273—this home checks every box. Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizing, or upgrading, this is incredible value for a single-family home in true move-in ready condition. While lovingly maintained, the home is sold in as-is condition.

Climate and Weather
The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
