15 Cortlandt St

Milltown, NJ 08850

Built in an era when craftsmanship, durability and authenticity were priorities, then proudly maintained and restored by the same family ever since, this clapboard Cape is a lovely reminder that bigger isn?t always better. All who enter are absolutely charmed by the built-in cupboards, Dutch door and the bright white kitchen, where gingham wallpaper is a cheerful accent and an enameled Chambers range piques everyone?s curiosity. These workhorses are prized for their efficiency and signature retro look! Don?t miss the fold-away table for quick bites and extra prep space. Larger meals are served in the dining room, which adjoins the living room warmed by a fireplace. Of course, a home of this vintage has real oak floors and these ones positively gleam. Two bedrooms share a bath tiled in pretty shades of aqua, another special vintage touch in excellent condition. Should a third bedroom be desired, simply tap into ample space on the unfinished 2nd floor. A sunroom provides more seasonal-use space and views of the backyard, which extends through a second rear yard designated for WWII victory gardens, all the way to a county park. The tree-lined street is an easy drive to Rutgers and routes to NYC.
