$775,000 for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with one-car garage on a quiet, tree-lined street with direct train access to NYC.
In a market where finding the balance of tranquility and convenience seems impossible, 16 Lidgerwood Place delivers both. “I didn’t even know this neighborhood was back here,” is a comment Ryan Bruen of The Bruen Team at Coldwell Banker hears repeatedly from visitors. “It’s located very conveniently on the east side of Morris Township, close to Convent Station train station for direct access right into New York City, but it’s a quiet neighborhood, one way in, one way out.”
Interiors & Layout
The 1945 Colonial features hardwood floors throughout the main level. The spacious living room centers around a fireplace and flows into the adjoining dining area. The kitchen connects to the dining space, forming what the listing describes as a warm and functional layout, and there is also a full bathroom on this level.
Upstairs, three bedrooms are served by the other full bathroom that has been updated to modern standards. The home features forced-air heating and central air conditioning, with natural gas fuel providing efficient year-round comfort.
Exteriors & Grounds
Set on a 0.172-acre lot, the property includes what the listing describes as a private backyard space for outdoor dining, gardening, or simply relaxing in a tranquil setting. A one-car garage provides convenience and additional storage.
Agent Perspective
“On one end of the street is Normandy Park Elementary School. So even if you don’t attend that elementary school, you have access to the fields and the playground, which is really a nice plus,” Bruen said. “On the opposite end of the street, you have discreet access to the Traction Line Recreation Trail, a paved bike and walking path.”

Located in the Normandy Park Historic District, the home sits at the intersection of convenience and community. Normandy Park Elementary School anchors one end of the street, while the opposite end offers discreet access to the Traction Line Recreation Trail. “It runs along the train line on one end going into downtown Morristown, on the other end going into downtown Madison,” Bruen explained.
The location also provides easy access to Routes 287 and 24, while downtown Morristown’s dining, shopping, and the Mayo Performing Arts Center are nearby. Schools serving the area include Woodland Elementary, Thomas Jefferson School, and Morristown High School.
