About this home
A HOME THAT MAKES EVERYDAY LIFE FEEL A LITTLE MORE BEAUTIFUL. Set on an idyllic, tree-lined block, this Uptown gem is close to Watchung Plaza yet wonderfully removed from the rush. Think morning bagel runs followed by coffee on the deck, afternoons browsing the bookstore, dinner around the corner and an easy commute to NYC. Step through the enclosed front porch a favorite perch for rocking away the evening into warm, welcoming living and dining rooms. At the heart of the home, the kitchen opens to a sun-filled family room and deck, keeping everyone together and the cook in the conversation. An expansive, beautifully private backyard waits just beyond. A powder room completes the first floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and an updated full bath, while the third floor offers flexible space for an office or guests. The finished basement and full bath provide even more room for work, play or visitors. A backyard "she shed adds possibility and fun. Just two blocks away, Olmsted Brothers-designed Brookdale Park becomes an extension of home, with pickleball, tennis, a fitness course, dog park, playgrounds, concerts and Fourth of July fireworks. Enjoy the Montclair Art Museum, the Film Festival and a community alive with culture. Here, the car can stay home, simple rituals become something more and ordinary days feel like the good life.
