About this home

Nearly 2, 800 square feet of living space sets this West Ward home apart for a first-time buyer who does not want to compromise on room. 3BR and 1.5 bath gives the layout real breathing room, with space that works for everyday living and room to grow into. A private deck extends the living space outdoors, useful for weekends, gatherings, or a quiet morning before the commute. The attached garage handles parking and storage, which is a genuine advantage on a Newark street where off-street parking is not a given. Location keeps the day-to-day simple. The home sits close to transportation, with easy access to Newark Penn Station, Downtown Newark and a direction path into NYC. This property is FHA qualified and eligible for first-time homebuyer grant programs of up to $22, 000. For a first-time buyer who wants square footage, parking, and a real path to the keys, this is a straightforward way in.
