Property of the Week: $1.1 Million Deerfield Ranch

Location: 24 Winthrop Road, Short Hills

Price: $1,100,000
Bedrooms: 2
Baths: 4 

Descriptions: Custom built in 1961 by a couple of empty nesters, this all brick ranch offers elegant one floor living and is in a private enclave of homes known as the Mountaintop Section of Short Hills.

There are 2 floors of living space, which includes a large, finished ground level basement for guests or entertaining. Featuring a circular drive that leads you to a double door entry with marble floor, there are good sized rooms on the main level. A large sunken living room and dining room across the back of the house, have sliding doors that open to the yard. The updated eat-in kitchen has Brazilian Cherry wood floors, granite counters and a laundry room and side door are just steps away. There is a paneled family room along with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the main level. Downstairs there is a fully tiled ground level with a possible bedroom and bath en-suite, recreation room, office, gym, a second full bath, play room, plus an oversized 2 car garage.

With great potential to be expanded, this home has a new roof, but it could easily have a large second floor added to convert it into a colonial, like many of the impressive homes on this cul-de-sac street in the Deerfield area of town.
