Property Description

Welcome to 49 Spring Lake Dr in Brookhaven, where extensive, high-impact renovations meet the ease of classic ranch living. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers approximately 1,550 square feet and showcases approximately $30,000 in recent updates—delivering a truly move-in ready experience with modern finishes throughout. The homeowner’s meticulous attention to detail is evident at every turn, inside and out. The 2024 renovation, thoughtfully curated by the homeowner, features a fully refreshed interior including complete repainting, refinished solid hardwood floors, and new premium carpet with upgraded padding in all bedrooms and the finished basement. The kitchen has been tastefully upgraded with new cabinetry, waterproof and scratch-resistant flooring, quartz sink, updated faucet, and a full suite of premium appliances. The full bathroom has also been updated with new fixtures, waterproof flooring, and modern finishes. Additional improvements include new interior and exterior doors, updated lighting throughout, and major exterior upgrades such as a newly repaved driveway and poured walkway. The finished basement adds valuable flexible living space, complete with a half bath, laundry area, and an expansive crawl space offering exceptional storage. Inside, the home offers a bright, comfortable layout with abundant natural light and a functional ranch design. A sliding glass door off the kitchen leads to a spacious rear deck overlooking a large, open backyard—ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or everyday outdoor living. The fully fenced yard provides a perfect space for pets to roam freely. The property also includes a generously sized shed with full electricity—ideal for storage, hobbies, or workshop use—along with an additional refrigerator and optional inclusions available for buyer convenience. Additional highlights include all new appliances, a 2025 hot water heater with warranty, refreshed landscaping with established rose bushes ready to burst with color, and a comprehensive list of upgrades so extensive it has been separately documented for buyers. Other features include a double sump pump with battery backup for added peace of mind, pull-down attic access, and abundant storage between the attic and crawl space. Whether you need space to store, create, or simply spread out, this home delivers. Ideally located in Brookhaven just off Kirkwood Highway and Route 4, this home offers easy access to shopping, dining, parks, and everyday conveniences in Newark. A fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers or those seeking the simplicity of one-level living with the added benefit of finished lower-level space, abundant storage, and a backyard designed for both everyday enjoyment and entertaining. This home isn’t just beautiful—it’s functional, thoughtfully upgraded, and truly move-in ready. Homes with this level of updates, functionality, and care don’t come around often!
