Nestled behind mature flowering trees and lush landscaping sits this storybook Tudor, lovingly maintained by the same owner for over 20 years. An entrance vestibule with coat closet ushers you into the spacious living room with wood-burning fireplace w/ recently relined chimney. The living room flows nicely to the den and a secluded and perfectly private three-season porch. The generously sized dining room is open to the kitchen, also connected by a butler's pantry. On the second floor, 3 light-filled bedrooms and a renovated full bathroom with soaking tub. Countless possibilities await on the third floor, with a large and open bedroom space with custom built-in reading nook. The full basement has been recently re-finished and features a family room, office with custom doors and a full wet bar, complete with mini-fridge, sink and plentiful cabinet and counter space. The perfect space for relaxing all day or for guests. French drain, sump pump and waterproofed walls all provide peace of mind. Central air to keep you cool in Summer and steam radiators to stay warm all Winter. Furnace new in 2018. Nearly every window has been replaced and blown-in insulation added to keep the house efficient and quiet from outside noise. Outside, a one car detached garage private, fenced-in yard. All of this in a truly unmatched location, centered between both Watchung and Upper Montclair downtown areas. In minutes you can be at Watchung Ave train station, Edgemont Park or dining on Valley Road.
