- Features:
-
Almost 100 years ago the normal gracious home was designed with large covered front porches for a place to to sit and enjoy the shade. Times have changed since then but the charm of these ‘lemonade’ porches remains. As does the charm of the high ceilings and the shuttered windows. There were hardwood floors, large living rooms and dining rooms.
This home has all of these things plus the advantage of having had updates in the kitchen to bring it up to today’s standards and the finishing of a room in the basement to create a play room or recreation room.
There is a large double garage and a paved driveway turn-around for easy exit to East Ridgewood Avenue. If you commute to New York City, the bus stops about a half a block away.
The Duck Pond county park is a couple of short blocks down the street and has paved trails surrounding the pond and along the Saddle River. This property has something for everyone.

- Local Area Information:
- Ridgewood is a unique community of almost 6 square miles and over 24,000 residents in northwest Bergen County. After 1893 when the present railroad station was established, wealthy New Yorkers looking for summer recreation built summer homes in the town and eventually became full-time residents. That trend has continued to this day with many village residents continuing to work in NYC. The village is known for it’s vibrant central business district with boutiques and nationally known chains… and more than 60 diverse eating places.
Bus lines provide access to New York City going to either the Port Authority Bus Terminal or the George Washington Bridge Bus Terminal. Commute time is an hour or less. The GWB also gives access to Manhattan by car. And of course, the railroad gives a fast, comfortable commute that will soon go directly into Penn Station without requiring a transfer in Hoboken.
