Welcome to the home that has it all — breathtaking views, timeless architecture, room to breathe, and a perfect blend of elegance and comfort.
Nestled in the heart of the Watchung Mountains, this custom-designed architectural masterpiece offers unobstructed panoramic countryside views and a full view of the NYC skyline. Set on approximately 2 acres in a prestigious and peaceful neighborhood, this home provides both privacy and convenience — just minutes from top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and major highways (I-78), with a 35-minute drive to New York City.
From the moment you arrive at the circular driveway and step through the elegant mahogany front door, you’ll know this home is truly special. The dramatic two-story living and dining rooms feature soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light, and a stunning marble fireplace — perfect for unforgettable evenings with guests or cozy moments with family.
The entertainment-focused kitchen features a spacious center island, granite countertops, premium appliances, and a bright eat-in area. The adjacent family room, with its floor-to-ceiling natural stone fireplace and custom built-in entertainment center, is the heart of the home — ideal for gatherings, movie nights, or simply soaking in the spectacular views.
The main-floor primary suite is a peaceful retreat with two large walk-in closets, an attached office/sitting room, and a luxurious master bath with dual vanities and a freestanding tub — surrounded by a sea of blooming rhododendrons in May.
Upstairs, you’ll find a guest suite with its own private bath, plus two generously sized bedrooms with a shared Jack-and-Jill bathroom — perfect for family or visitors.
Need more space? The fully finished walk-out lower level offers additional living and entertaining areas, including a cedar wood sauna, full bath, office, recreation room, billiard/game room, and ample storage — making it ideal for multigenerational living, a home gym, or creative studio.

What the owner loves about this home
What I love most about this home is the view — it’s truly breathtaking in every season and at every time of day.
From sunrise to sunset, the panoramic scenery constantly transforms with the light and the weather. Each season brings its own magic: the soft glow of spring sunrises, the golden hues of autumn mornings, the crisp winter skyline of New York City, and even rare sights like hoarfrost glistening on the trees or mist rolling through the valley like a sea of clouds.
Also every window frames a beautiful view. Every room flows with warmth. Whether it’s a quiet morning coffee on the deck or celebrating holidays with family, this home has given us so many joyful memories. Now it’s ready for its next chapter — and yours.
