Set on a private one-acre lot along a quiet road shared by only seven residences, this California-style 4 BED / 2.5 BATH raised ranch captures the essence of mid-century design in a peaceful, natural setting. Bordering the Watchung Reservation, the home offers exceptional privacy and a close connection to nature while remaining minutes from Summit's vibrant downtown, top-rated schools, and direct NYC train and bus service. Inside, spanning hardwood floors, expansive picture windows, and original built-ins highlight the craftsmanship and clean lines of the era. Sunlight pours into every room, framing serene wooded views and creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Three patios provide outdoor living spaces perfect for morning coffee, dining, or entertaining under the trees. The lower level includes a home office, family room, powder room, laundry area, and workshop. A new multi-zone HVAC system adds modern comfort, complemented by a two-car garage, and ample parking.
