Property details
About 40 Phelps Ave
This is a great location - at the edge of Rutgers campus, 2 miles from the train station and steps from the bus stop - for anyone who wants to customize a home to their specific taste and style. Fresh new paint and hardwood floors throughout the entire end-unit townhouse present the perfect starting point. Plus, with the roof just replaced in 2022, you’ll feel securely protected. Sliders in the living room open to a deck and fenced yard, the ideal spot for a future lawn or garden sized just right for weekend enjoyment. The kitchen is rather large, but could feel positively immense if opened up to the dining room. In addition to a handy powder room, two full baths serve three upstairs bedrooms. If you’ve always wanted double sinks in your primary suite bathroom, there’s plenty of space to make that happen! Don’t miss the full basement with one side partially finished. An assigned parking space lets you hop in the car and quickly zip to the countless stores and restaurants right nearby or get on the turnpike to explore farther destinations.
