Property Description
119 Sherman Place, South Orange Right between two train stations. Two village downtowns. One house that's clearly been loved for the last 12 years.This is a 2,050+ square foot Dutch Colonial in the Academy Heights neighborhood, set up for real life. Freshly painted in 2026, hardwood floors, trim with actual character. A wood burning fireplace in the living room, a real dining room, and rooms flexible enough for work from home days.Upstairs: three bedrooms and an updated full bath.There's also a full walk up third floor attic. Basically a blank canvas if you want more space down the road for a primary suite or private office.Downstairs, the finished walkout lower level has its own full bath. Media room, home gym, office, you decide.Outside is where this one gets fun. A private patio surrounded by mature landscaping, a gas line already run for the grill (included!) and a four zone sprinkler system (updated 2025) doing the lawn work for you. Plus a detached two car garage with a new door (2022) and opener.Here's the part buyers always ask about: the mechanicals. Central air (2014, new coil in 2024). A 30 year architectural shingle roof (2009). Water heater (2023). Sump pump, brand new in 2026. Water softener (2015). Underground oil tank, fully removed in 2001.Someone took care of this house. You're not walking into a list of someday projects.South Orange and Maplewood are both minutes away, both train stations, the same distance. This one is ready to go.
