74 Porter Place: Berkshires Living in Montclair, Where Suburb Meets the City! Some properties defy easy description. This is one of them. Set on nearly a full, flat acre in Montclair's coveted Estate Section, this is a once-in-a-generation offering: a romantic, fully renovated cottage paired with a separate two-room office/artist's studio, surrounded by breathtaking private gardens. The kind of place that makes you forget you're twenty minutes from Manhattan.Perfect for upsizers seeking room to grow, downsizers craving turnkey ease, artists needing a light-filled studio, or city dwellers longing for a country retreat without leaving the vibrant, cultural lifestyle Montclair offers. Every inch has been thoughtfully updated; renovations include refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, new light fixtures, and much more. Sun-soaked sliding doors open to a Jansen heated gunite pool.The soul of the property lies in its grounds. Nearly 1 acre of level, lovingly cultivated land, once tended by a gardener who recreated the Irish country gardens of her childhood. Mature trees and seasonal blooms have earned repeated features on Van Vleck's Roses to Rocks garden tour.On top of it all, the open front lot offers rare possibility: build your dream home (variance required) or preserve the gardens as a private sanctuary, all moments from downtown's restaurants, boutiques, and theatres.74 Porter is an invitation to slow down, to create, and to grow something beautiful.Rooms Sizes
