Property Description

MoMA meets Montclair in this extraordinary Modern Tudor Manor. Stripped down to the exterior stone & timber wall shell in 2020, this 1910 historic Van Vleck & Goldsmith mansion has been recrafted for luxury living. Architects Robert M Gurney and Jonathan Perlstein, and interior designer Birgitte Pearce, have created a serene, functional, modern home, that artfully blends indoor and outdoor spaces. High ceilings and large windows, an abundance of natural light and interesting materials, a breathtaking three-story atrium with a floating staircase, custom light fixtures, sophisticated wall treatments, all meld into a contemporary European elegance. On the main level an impressive formal living/dining area is grounded by a towering fireplace and stone walls. An expansive kitchen-family room opens through a wall of sliding glass doors to an elegant outdoor patio, cozy stone porch, and a magical private garden with pool. The upstairs private bedroom suites (including the Primary with 2 walk-in closets) have been thoughtfully designed. The top level surprises with a magnificent great room, a 4th bedroom suite, and a fully framed and plumbed 5th bedroom suite, waiting to be finished. The lower level boasts an indoor pool, gym, sauna, steam, rec room and full bath. Occupying 1.8 lush acres, the estate also offers a 3 car garage, and a stunning, fully renovated, 2 bed, 2.5 bath carriage house cottage.
