Property Description

Born in 1941, I was crafted with timeless character, thoughtfully set back from the street with a deep driveway and a welcoming front yard. My outdoor spaces, designed by Fiddlehead Gardens, are beautifully landscaped with irrigation, lighting, custom redwood raised beds, and a Connecticut flagstone. My architecture nods to the Art Deco era, with curved porch railings, a chevron-patterned front door, and rounded corners in the kitchen. In my light-filled living room, windows frame the lush canopy of a Camphor tree—a serene and stunning focal point. Over the past 15 years, my stewards have lovingly modernized me, partnering with designer Heather Cleveland to create a warm and functional kitchen great room. By opening the wall to the dining room, they crafted a space with a large island, dual sinks, and a Bertazzoni 5-burner range—designed for two cooks to create side by side. Countless meals and memories have been made here, featuring the season’s best from Montclair’s Farmers Market. My dreamy layout also offers flexible spaces for guests or multi-generational living, making me as practical as I am charming. I am a home where character and thoughtful updates blend seamlessly—a place my caretakers will always love and cherish, now available only because life is calling to Tokyo!
