Property Description

Welcome to your private, resort-style oasis just minutes from Manhattan. Artfully reimagined and steps from both Maplewood and South Orange downtowns, this sun-bathed Tudor is a one-of-a-kind sanctuary combining historic soul with chic design and breathtaking South Mountain views. The 1st level balances warmth and function with effortless style. A sunlit living room with WBF flows into a dining space and family room, both with access to a picturesque covered porch - perfect for morning coffee and sunsets. The chef's EIK anchors daily life, featuring custom cabinetry, soapstone counters, new smart/premium appliances, Vulcan stove, coffee bar, and walk-in pantry. A convenient powder room, mudroom, and garage entrance complete this level. Multiple living areas, including a finished basement with media space, wet bar, and large laundry room, offer flexibility for entertaining and everyday living. Upstairs features three generous BRs with ample closets, Jack-n-Jill bath, and private primary en-suite. The 3rd level offers a 4th BR/office plus a separate lounge and yoga space. The backyard is a true showstopper: a luxury, multi-level retreat centered around a smart-enabled, heated saltwater pool and a wrap-around deck with dedicated BBQ, dining, and lounging areas. Beyond the pool, a professionally landscaped garden with fire pit creates a rare sense of privacy. Designed not just to live in, but to escape to every day.
