9 Amherst Ct

Thoughtfully updated and elegantly maintained, this pristine Colonial offers a rare blend of character, craftsmanship, and modern comfort - steps from Maplecrest Park and an easy train ride to NYC. The heart of 9 Amherst Court is the oversized, custom-renovated kitchen - intuitively structured with built-in stainless steel appliances, generous workspace, and seamless connection to the indoor dining and living spaces. The kitchen's counterpart is a natural extension of the home: a state-of-the-art stone patio and outdoor dining area. The sitting wall, built from locally sourced New Jersey stone and bluestone, lights up in the evening and sets the backyard aglow. The home merges old and new perfectly. Original, preserved hardwood floors with unique inset patterns adorn all rooms. Classic picture rail moldings allow you to hang art with ease. Modern touches feature a brand new central AC system; a stylish, renovated full bathroom; professionally painted interiors; and designer light fixtures in each room-in addition to the home's original stained glass chandelier. Practical improvements include a very rare heated driveway, custom cut wooden blinds, newer windows, gutter guards, French drains, sump pump, chimney liner and meticulously maintained systems. Set on a quiet tree-lined street one block away from the local farmer's market, gazebo with weekly music concerts, library, park - and steps from shops, and restaurants - this home uniquely balances beauty and function.
