Expanded Cape in Mahwah’s romantic Cragmere section—where mature trees canopy the streets and no two homes are alike. Elevated from the road, this home is as unassuming as it is charming, offering over 2,900 square feet of living space that blends scale with character.
Gleaming hardwood floors and a rich, curated palette extend throughout the first level. A formal living room sits quietly at the front of the home and flows seamlessly into the dining room beyond. Both spaces are anchored by a striking two-sided wood-burning fireplace, featuring a raised brick hearth and floor-to-ceiling surround.
The kitchen maintains oak cabinetry, granite counters and tiled backsplash. Each selection speaks to the age of the home and beckons to stay. A perfectly placed eat-in area is thoughtfully defined with custom built-ins, chair rail, crown molding and complimented by an elevated view overlooking the front yard.
A large great room with cathedral ceiling and direct entrance to the backyard is a vibe all on its own. Showcasing exposed ceiling joists and rafters, an entire brick wall with rustic, mantle shelf and the second fireplace of the home, this is bound to be where you escape to get away from it all. A large picture window frames the front yard, while a built-in bar sets the tone for relaxed evenings by the fire.
The main level continues with a bedroom featuring double-door closets and a remodeled en-suite bath with single-sink vanity and tub/shower. Two additional rooms—currently used as an office and playroom—are serviced by a renovated hall bath.
Upstairs, three additional bedrooms are complemented by a spacious, fully remodeled full bath.
As noted, the home is unassuming in the best way.
A partial basement offers excellent storage along with Bilco door access to the backyard.
Additional highlights include newer windows, an updated HVAC system, and a detached oversized garage.
Out back, a covered patio and comfortable green space create the perfect setting for entertaining or everyday enjoyment. A storage shed provides room for tools, bikes, and outdoor equipment.
Conveniently located near the elementary school, local shops and cafés, and Mahwah’s train station, this setting offers a true neighborhood feel with easy access to everyday essentials.
