## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome to this beautifully fully updated 1 story ranch home in the highly desirable Melrose neighborhood, ideally situated along the scenic Long Branch Creek reservoir. Originally fully renovated in 2023, the current owner has continued to enhance the property with thoughtful upgrades, including a **roof installed in 2023** and **brand new REAL hardwood floors (not LVP)** throughout the home--truly the standout feature that brings warmth, quality, and timeless appeal to the living spaces.The thoughtfully designed kitchen maintains its original layout featuring expansive quartzite countertops, solid wood kitchen cabinets,tile backsplash, and a newly installed **gas cooktop**. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a designated dining room, perfect for gathering with family and friends. The spacious floor plan offers two large living areas. The inviting front living room welcomes you upon entry, while the rear family room features French doors that open to a huge backyard overlooking the pond, where you can enjoy watching herons, ducks, and geese in a peaceful natural setting. Mature shade trees enhance the fenced in back yard, creating a serene, established landscape. Additional highlights include a garage, extended driveway with ample parking, and generously sized rooms offering flexibility for a home office, playroom or guest space. The primary suite features an updated en suite with double vanity, walk in shower, and a spacious walk-in closet.
