Property Description

Elegant, graceful, and unmistakably modern, this craftsman colonial sits on one of Montclair's most idyllic tree-lined streets. Remarkable period craftsmanship meets a thoughtful, extensive renovation, creating a home that is sophisticated yet warm and welcoming, with eight bedrooms, four full baths, and two half baths across an expansive, light-filled layout. Living and dining rooms showcase original detailing and oversized windows, while a double-sided gas fireplace anchors the living room and sun room. The new chef's kitchen blends modern function with exceptional space, flowing into a casual family room on one side and offering wide views of the fully fenced yard on the other. Upstairs, spacious bedrooms, with seasonal NYC views, include a serene primary suite with a renovated bath and a fabulous dressing room. The completely revamped basement, with 7'4" ceilings, features a renovated half bath and direct egress to the backyard, ideal for play, work, or fitness. Outside, a large patio with a gas fire pit and a deer-proof kitchen garden with raised beds and irrigation create a private retreat. Updated wiring, plumbing, HVAC, and a new sewer line offer modern comfort and peace of mind throughout, while preserved period craftsmanship gives this home its lasting charm. All of this just moments from vibrant downtown Montclair, top-rated schools, and convenient NYC transportation.
