Property Description
Tucked within the heart of Montclair is a house so charming, it feels lifted from a storybook. Cross the wooden bridge and the world begins to soften, and the hum of everyday life gives way to birdsong and the rustling of leaves. In 1935 John Frederick ("J.F.") Altermatt built this and the house next door. Here the quiet beauty of nature meets timeless character yet an addition in 1983 brought the home into the modern era with a primary suite and kitchen/family room combo! Step inside to a stunning entry, light-filled living room with soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, a grand stone hearth, and a large multi-paned window that gazes out into the trees, framing the forest as though it were a living portrait. The kitchen, off the dining room, WOWS as it opens onto a bright airy family room with a Dutch door leading level out to the first of many outdoor patios. This home on a .49A lot was made to celebrate the landscape around it and to be a part of it whether dining, reading or swinging in a hammock. The two-car garage and generous driveway offer space for guests, though they may never want to leave. A perfect blend of history, charm & nature, that feels far away from the real world and yet is only minutes to coffee, beer with friends, great farmer's market and Thornhill Elementary
