8 Fordham Rd, Livingston, NJ 07039-5507

A sophisticated modern retreat where architectural design meets elevated suburban living. This brand-new contemporary sits on over half an acre of private grounds in Chestnut Hill. Clean lines, natural stone, warm wood accents, and black-framed glass give the home striking presence. Inside, an open, light-filled layout unfolds from a two-story foyer with an oak staircase and overlook to the soaring great room, where a wall of windows and two sets of floor-to-ceiling sliders flood the space with natural light and bring the outdoors in. A gas fireplace anchors the room, which flows to the sunroom, dining area, and kitchen. The kitchen is a showpiece: full Viking suite, waterfall island, pot filler, walk-in pantry, custom two-tone cabinetry, and sculptural brass lighting. Two private first-floor rooms, one with a walk-out balcony, are ideal for home offices or guests. The primary suite is a sanctuary, with a custom walk-in closet and a spa bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub with brass floor-mounted filler, frameless glass shower with rain and handheld heads, and double quartz vanity. Upstairs, a bedroom opens to a 20-foot walk-out balcony. Six bedrooms and 5.1 baths in all. The finished lower level adds a rec room with wet bar and a bedroom suite with full bath. Outside, the patio opens to a rare, usable backyard surrounded by mature trees. Three-car garage, acclaimed Livingston schools, and an easy commute to NYC. A seamless blend of modern design, space, and privacy.
