Open House October 10 and 11: 4980 Stafford Pl, Newark, a Remodeled Single Story Four Bedroom at $1,550,000
I am hosting the open house at 4980 Stafford Pl in Newark's Lake neighborhood this Saturday, October 10 and Sunday, October 11, from 1:00 to 4:00 PM. Both days, open to the public. Walk in, no appointment needed.

Here is the short version of why it is worth the drive. It is a single story house with four bedrooms on an 8,058 square foot corner lot, on a court, and according to the listing it has been remodeled with City of Newark permits. Among the twelve Newark houses of the same era in the RPR report's recent activity, only two sit on more land. It is asking $1,550,000, with no HOA.
- List price: $1,550,000, about $908 per square foot.
- Size: 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, all on one level, 1,707 square feet. The family room is a couple of steps down from the dining area.
- Lot: 8,058 square feet, about 0.19 of an acre, a corner lot on a court with a fenced back yard.
- Updated, per the listing: both bathrooms remodeled, the kitchen updated with stone counters, fresh paint inside and out, new laminate flooring and new carpet.
- Built: 1968, with a brick wood burning fireplace in the family room and an attached two car garage.
- HOA: none.
For context on the market: Newark's months of supply rose to 2.82 in September, the highest on RPR's five-year chart, and the homes that sold still closed at 100.97% of list on average after a median of 13 days. I put the full picture on my blog: how the asking price sits against every Newark median and the four homes around it, the room sizes from the floor plan, every photo labeled honestly, and the three things I would look at closely before writing an offer.
