Some Great Open House Choices Today in Maplewood (aka Brooklyn West)

There are 15 Open Houses today in Maplewood. So, you might want to come out today before we all turn our heads to the skies tomorrow afternoon for the Solar Eclipse.

Here are a few to tease you with:

20 Rutgers Offered at $729,000 for this 4 bed home with master suite and so much more, districted for Tuscan Elementary School

Terrific Tuscan Tudor located in College Hill Maplewood. This amazing home not only has a renovated kitchen but includes a master suite with bath and all the trimmings as part of a total of 9 rooms. You will love the extended living room that unfolds to a family room and the large foyer that helps to encourage entertaining ease on the first floor; yes there is a first floor powder. The 2nd floor has a rare total of 4 beds and 2 full baths; but there is more: there is a bonus room on the 3rd floor that could be used as an office or guest room. There is a wonderful patio off the kitchen that allow for outdoor enjoyment. You are blocks to Tuscan elementary and close to Maplewood's award winning downtown and trains.
Call 917-797-5059 to arrange your showing ASAP!

16 Osborne Terrace Offered at $650,000 in the Tuscan School District

Charming Tuscan Colonial featuring 5 bedrooms and 2 and 1/2 baths walking distance to schools, town and NYC train.


This 5 bed 2.5 bath home is so much about Location, Location, Location, as in steps to Tuscan Elementary School and a short walk to Maplewood’s downtown village and NJ Transit Trains. Live, Play and Work in this home with renovated kitchen and baths sitting on almost 4/10’s of park-like acreage.
From the start, you know you are living the good life. To really impress your friends, put a bowl of apples and keep a pitcher of cider at the ready in your gracious foyer which allows for smooth transition from the outdoors-in. The formal living room is complemented by a wood burning fireplace that will warm your heart (and toes) in the winter. Enjoy all the rooms you have at your disposal, including dining room, den, sitting room and for ¾’s of the year and a screened in porch that is bathed in sunlight.
Four beds and one full bath and an additional powder room make for easy bathcare. One more bedroom, office and full bath help to top off the home on the third floor. Want a master suite? The third floor provides a perfect space to allow you to be the “master” of your own domain or you can simply convert the office on the 3rd floor to another bedroom and then blowout the 2nd floor powder and turn that into an amazing master suite.
Are you a fan of Farm to Table eating? Well, the three outdoor spaces on the property allow you to have a chance to own your very own farmyard-to-kitchen gardens. Imagine picking fresh fruit and vegetables to enjoy.
The location of this home is excellent. You will have no problem getting your Fitbit steps in each day around Memorial Park, where you can also play some tennis, basketball or enjoy the playground with jungle gym. Or, head into town to grab a beer at St James Gate, or a bite at Coda, or treat yourself to a gourmet dinner at one of NJ’s best: Lorena’s. Do you get tense about commuting time and distance? Imagine being less than a mile to the train station that will jet you into NYC Penn Station. At the same time, you could play hooky and simply hang out in town at any of Maplewood’s award winning downtown at restaurants like Abril Cocina, Arturo’s, Lorena’s or grab a cup of coffee at Able Baker, Bagel Chateau, Village Coffee or the new Starbucks that is about to open.
Do you travel by air for business or pleasure? Newark Airport is just 15 minutes away by car or Uber.
For more information or to see the home, please email me at sladehomes@gmail.com or call me at 917-797-5059 if you have any questions.

Charming colonial with good sized rooms offering an eat-in kitchen, den, living room and formal dining room on the first floor and three bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor.
Close to transportation, several restaurants--HLS, award winning Verjus, and more, let alone 2 gyms & several shops. It could cost less to buy than to rent a home and then you can start building equity for the future. Zoned for Tuscan Elementary School.

A picturesque town in Essex County, Maplewood is located on the East Branch of the Rahway River. Originally consisting of farms, mills and orchards, Maplewood is now a great mix of residential and commercial areas, culminating in the jewel of a downtown village and coming together to create a charming, tight-knit and diversified community. Maplewood has predominantly Colonial and Tudor style homes with sprawling porches and ample greenery, but you can also find some Victorians and a range of more modern style construction on its beautiful tree lined streets.
Maplewood is a diverse town with 6 elementary schools and prominent municipal building designed by famous architects, Guilbert and Betelle. In the center of town, famed landscape architects, the Olmstead Brothers, created the breathtaking Memorial Park; not to be overlooked is Ricalton Square, nestled between the train station and the downtown shopping; this area is frequently used for events including a Halloween Parade with hayrides and petting zoos, as well as featuring replica homes during the Winter Holiday Season. The town offers many activities to its residents from camps in the summer, arts and crafts classes, a public pool (with 4 pools ranging from a “baby” pool to toddler pool to large lap pool and a diving tank) and a farmers market when in season. There is even an annual musicalpalooza--Maplewoodstock—featuring a variety of bands and musical styles, showcasing local and national bands with booths for local businesses to set up.
The Village, also known as Maplewood Center, is a quaint, downtown shopping district with everything from restaurants with foods from all over the world, bakeries, dance studios, gyms, bookstores, a movie theater and bookstores. With its large variety of cuisines to choose from, Maplewood recently started a yearly town-wide Restaurant Week with over 30 eateries participating.
Easily accessible by its throughways and the New Jersey Transit, it's no surprise Maplewood has been ranked several times as one of the most desirable places to live in America by a number of surveys.
