    What's special

    Nestled in one of Montclair's most welcoming neighborhoods, this enchanting John Post-style stone cottage offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern updates, having been extensively renovated over the past five years. Thoughtful improvements include a replaced roof (2021) and newer HVAC system with forced hot air and central air conditioning. Inside, the renovated kitchen features a clean, contemporary design that complements the home's timeless character. A bright sunroom provides the perfect space for a home office, den, or creative retreat, while a convenient powder room and a warm and spacious living room complete the first floor. The second level offers three spacious, sun-filled bedrooms and a beautifully renovated full bath. The custom-finished lower level adds exceptional versatility with a bright fourth bedroom and full bathroom. Location is everything, and this home delivers. Just two blocks from the Montclair Heights train station and multiple bus routes, commuting to New York City is remarkably convenient. Upper Montclair's vibrant village center with its popular restaurants, boutiques, coffee shops, and services is just a short stroll, quick drive, or easy bus ride away. Combining storybook curb appeal, extensive renovations, and an unbeatable location in a tight-knit community, this special home is ready for its next chapter. Simply unpack, settle in, and enjoy all that Montclair living has to offer.
