After a decade in brownstone Brooklyn. I traded a small third floor walk-up on a main thoroughfare for a beautiful 1927 Center Hall Colonial with a picturesque backyard and a driveway. I have made the transition from NYC, I am very active in our outstanding public schools, and I am very knowledgeable about everything our community has to offer. Whether you already call this community home, or are discovering Essex County towns for the first time, I look forward to becoming your dedicated real estate specialist.
