About This Home

As of November 2021

The Sierra vibe is here, but in Montclair! At the quiet end of a dead-end street, a soaring, spacious Great Room and natural surroundings provide a true retreat from a hectic world. A huge very private tree-top sunny outdoor living deck is surrounded by endless nature. Open your own creative spirit with the many special spaces - lofts for office and resting, a professional photographer’s darkroom, a caterer’s kitchen, workout room bonus space, and a detached workshop. Either bedroom could be the primary suite, each with a contiguous full bathroom. Level planting beds near the front door provide for a gardener to dabble. Enjoy your own lemons, limes, pears, and plums from established fruit trees. Birds and wildlife help the home feel like a mountain resort, yet it is less than a 15-minute drive to Montclair Village, close to Sibley Regional Preserve. Only two owners, first time on the market since 1984. We welcome you to attend open houses on Sunday Oct. 3, from 2:00- 4:30
