It seems so unusual, so surprising, that in a bustling town like West Orange -- central to everything -- you are able to find what feels like a cottage oasis in the woods. It's even hard to find this house on a map. The tax map will show that it's boxed in somehow. You travel up Mellon Avenue until you think it should end; then just stare upward and notice a driveway where Mellon Avenue continues for just one single house. Here you'll find your little slice of life, away from everything.

A cozy, comfortable, Cape Cod that drops you in the forest in the summer and, when you're ready, lets you quickly hit reality again. It's in walking distance to local houses of worship, the Pleasantdale Elementary School and the West Orange High School, and local transportation. You can quickly shop at local stores or jump on Route 280. This is your place if you're looking to downsize, looking for your first home, or just want a home that's not too overwhelming for you.

It has wood floors, updated kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 full modern bathrooms, a den and a 1 car attached garage. The 60 x 125 lot size is bigger than it appears at first glance. This house can become your home when you're ready for something special in town. It is being sold "as is" and the sale requires approval from the lenders regarding sales price. Tax appeal already in progress.
