495 E. Saddle River Rd, Ridgewood

This Ridgewood home is deceivingly large. Two additions over the years have turned this cape-colonial into  a full size home.

A master bedroom suite with hardwood floors and a full bath with bathtub is on the first floor. The second addition is the family room/mud room/2 car garage. The family room is quite large and has hardwood floors, a wood-burning stove (which could be easily removed), open dining area and sliding glass doors to a bluestone patio. The mudroom has three double closets. And the 2-car garage actually is large enough for two modern vehicles.

See the complete listing report for 495 E Saddle River Rd Ridgewood

The kitchen was renovated in the late 90’s, although the stainless appliances are much newer.

Upstairs are three more bedrooms and a hall bath. There are four attic spaces which will make adding central air easier.

Ridgewood colonials for sale $400,000 – $500,000
Ridgewood colonials for sale $500,000 – $600,000
Ridgewood colonials for sale $600,000 – $700,000
Ridgewood colonials for sale $700,000 – $800,000

The attic over the garage is huge and it has a floor. Even better, there are no stairs into the attic – you can enter directly from one of the bedrooms.

The basement is partially finished. The furnace is just over 1-year old and there are four heating zones.

The total square footage not including basement and attic is 2,655. A typical unexpanded cape is usually under 1,600 square feet, so this one is more than 50% larger — and there’s substantially more headroom upstairs.

The backyard is large, flat and private. At 0.62 acres, there’s ample room for recreation, gardening and relaxing. Trees provide separation on three sides of the backyard.

For more information on 495 E. Saddle River Rd, Ridgewood contact Michael Shetler, Keller Williams Village Square Realty. 201.421.0506 cell or 201.445.4300 x231 office.
