Nestled in the coveted Montrose neighborhood of South Orange, this stately Colonial blends timeless architectural detail with thoughtfully curated modern updates. From the moment you arrive, the home's elegant presence and classic charm set the tone for what awaits inside. A gracious double-door entry opens to a sun-drenched interior with original parquet floors & ribbon inlay, oversized windows, and exquisite custom millwork throughout. The coffered-ceiling living room is both grand and inviting, featuring a gas fireplace, and flows seamlessly into a bright sunroom overlooking the expansive, fenced backyard. Designed for entertaining and everyday living, the spacious kitchen is a true centerpiece with an oversized island, six-burner range, double sinks, and abundant storage. Upstairs, the primary suite is a luxurious retreat with custom dressing room and a spa-like bath with handmade zellige tile, steam shower, heated floors and soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms and a Carrara marble full bath complete the second floor. The third level offers exceptional flexibility with three additional bedrooms, (one currently used as a movie screening room), plus great light, high ceilings, and extra storage. Outside, enjoy a generous backyard, landscaped native gardens, and a rare 4-car garage with a lofted 2nd level offering exciting potential. This is a truly special home where historic elegance and modern comfort come together in the commuter friendly town of South Orange.
