About 1631 Howard Ave

Where does one even begin to describe all the impressive amenities of this entertainers paradise tucked away privately on one of the most impeccably well presented streets in all of glorious Essex? All of your living can be enjoyed on one level and enjoyment is the keyword here as you will agree once your private property tour begins. Starting with the exterior, you will be greeted by a covered front porch adjacent to a massive multi car concrete driveway leading to a gigantic detached two car garage. But not until you pass, a private covered patio overlooking the panoramic rear yard, including its ample detached storage shed with its own electric service. Now let’s get back to that garage that was finished in 2006! Two bays with electric openers and smooth as glass concrete floor with a cavernous space above which could be finished out into a party room, and In-law suite or a massive storage area for all of your treasured items. This building is nearly another house in itself and yes indeed, it is fully powered up with its own electric service. Once inside the home, you will marvel at its spacious family room, wood-burning fireplace and bright sunny space. The welcoming foyer leads through a spacious living room covered in wide plank laminated flooring straight back to the chefs style kitchen with access to the rear patio via a sliding door. Three large bedrooms and two full baths (with their own heat lamps) provide plenty of space for the entire family. Situated on a .34 acre lot when this home was completely gutted and rehabbed in 1995, many who had their hands in crafting this work were genuine locals who grew up right on this very street, painstakingly rendering this lovely spacious home with new plumbing, electric, drywall, insulation, enlarged kitchen, master bath, separate laundry, bench, seating with storage beneath, double pane Anderson windows, new mechanical equipment and more. There's also a recently installed exterior electrical connection for a backup generator if you wish to add down the road for added security. Feel free to peruse the owners documentation package located in the kitchen. And don’t miss out on a stop at Pizza John’s just walking distance from your porch. An Essex institution! Are you ready to live large??
