About This Home

As of November 2024

"My favorite house in Montclair', says EVERYONE! Perched on 1.5 acres with views of the NYC skyline, this gem blends historic charm with contemporary comforts. 13 miles from NYC & blocks from Watchung Plaza & Uptown's restaurants, shops, & the NYC train, it offers high ceilings, huge windows, a stunning staircase, & meticulous detail. Olympia Dukakis called it home for 30 years. Features include a chef's kitchen, new family room, private bluestone patios, & a screened porch. Luxurious primary suite has a marble bath & dressing room. Two more bedrooms and a sitting room are on the 2nd floor, with another bath. The 3rd floor has two bedrooms (one as a rec room), a bath, and ample storage. Enjoy a dry, lower-level gym, wine room, and laundry center. Central air, 3 fireplaces, hardwood floors, and all the upgrades. Warm and welcoming, not pretentious. A 2-car stone garage with storage completes the package. This house will make your life better!
