About this home
Welcome to 162 Maple Street, where timeless warmth and craftsmanship are felt upon arrival. Its enclosed front porch makes a memorable first impression: freshly painted, bright with windows and perfect for coffee, reading or greeting friends. This 4 bedrm, 1.5 bath colonial preserves the original character buyers love: remarkable woodwork, detailed millwork and a traditional flow through its living room, formal dining rm and eat-in kitchen. Upstairs, a finished attic, with 2 closets and ample additional storage, offers a primary-bedroom alternative, private retreat, home office or flexible bonus space. The walk-out lower level provides excellent storage and future potential. Pride of ownership is unmistakable, with improvements made for durability: a 40yr roof installed in 2002, newer natural-gas furnace and gas water heater. A charming gas fireplace sets the scene for crisp fall evenings, holiday gatherings and slow Sunday mornings indoors. The brand-new deck and newly installed Marygrove retractable awning extend the living space outdoors, creating a comfortable setting for dining and summer entertaining. Commuter-friendly, the NJ TRANSIT bus stop at Harrison Avenue and Warman St. is right around the corner, with nearby Orange Station offering rail access. Enjoy easy access to Turtle Back Zoo, Codey Arena, and Montclair's restaurants and shopping, all just minutes away. A true West Orange classic that blends lasting integrity, comfort and opportunity for its next chapter.
