About This Home

As of November 2020

Classic Brick Georgian with original elegant architectural details. Sunny & spacious living, dining & family rooms with fireplaces. A crisp & fresh eat-in kitchen. Lovely screened-in porch & terrace. Admire the view of NYC's bright lights this winter from the Juliet balcony off the master bedroom dressing room. It also overlooks the private, professionally landscaped yard with low voltage exterior lighting and a sweet artist studio. Anderson Park is in view, too. Amazing location close to Watchung Plaza and Upper Montclair Village with bus and train. A gem, not to be missed!
