About This Home

As of November 2022

Location and property are the two things you can't change - and this home has the best of both! Set on an enormous, park-like property, steps to vibrant downtown Montclair and overlooking lovely Porter Park, this gracious Queen Anne Victorian (3572 sf) offers seamless flow, huge rooms, high ceilings, and some smart updates. The deep, wraparound porch is the perfect place to welcome friends. The huge eat-in kitchen, with walk out to the backyard, separate breakfast area and massive island is a cook's delight. With 7 bedrooms upstairs, there's plenty of room for everyone, including guests and those work from home offices. Second floor laundry is the ultimate convenience. The large, level property is .37 of an acre, with mature perennial plantings and plenty of room for a pool. Additional features include 2 zone central air/heat, new hot water heater, rebuilt 2 car garage, replacement windows throughout, and more. Just a half mile to all that downtown Montclair has to offer and under a mile to NYC train, this home offers the rare opportunity to really make it exactly what you have been dreaming of!
