about
A block from Thornhill Elementary and walking distance into Montclair Village sits this almost all-new- construction gem of a home with 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a super large lot accessed from both Thornhill Drive and Maiden Lane. The interior is two stories of clean lines and modern finishes designed to address work-from-home and family living lifestyles, while offering flexibility to separate one of the bed-bath suites as a separate-entry office/studio. Outdoors, the 5858 SF lot runs from the street-level two-car garage in front, through to Maiden Lane with extra parking and rear-yard access off the cul de sac The enormous lot offers ADU potential and many outdoor living options, thanks to expansive patios and easy-access terraces for gardens, yard and outdoor living space, all in a park-like setting.
Enter from the front patio and porch to the open-space great room concept arranged around an all-new island kitchen with Fisher & Paykel and Dacor appliances, including induction range with warming drawers, quartz counters, sleek custom cabinetry, high-style fixtures and designer-tile backsplash. The living-dining-kitchen space opens through French doors to a rear patio for private al fresco dining. Completing the main floor are two bedrooms with extensive closet space and a roomy all-new full bath. Follow the modern vertical-ballister staircase down to the garden-level office, master suite, laundry and separate-entry studio bed/bath, which opens to its own private patio.
This home is fully renovated and re-designed over the past 18 months, with permits, including: new/expanded foundation and retaining walls, all new windows and doors, engineered hardwood flooring in all living spaces, custom designer tile in all three baths, new electric and plumbing service, new HVAC, on-demand hot water, and newer vinyl roof. Enjoy views of wildlife and treetops from inside and your upper patio.
This foundation-to-roof renovation involved adding space, redesiging and rebuilding the entire interior, and replacing all systems of the home. The living space was expanded by excavating, enlarging and replacing the east-side foundation to add a two bed-bath suites in the lower, garden level: a full primary suite with primary bath, and a separate-entry suite with its own private patio. The two-story home’s floorplans were re-designed featuring a main level with open-concept living-dining-kitchen great room, open through French doors to a rear patio, plus two bedrooms and a hall bath. The garden level is now all above-grade and, in addition to its two bedroom suites, has an office area nad laundry room.
The upslope lot was extensively improved with tiered leveled terraces linking the main-level patio to garden, yard and additional patio space on the uppermost terrace in the rear, and providing side access via a new redwood staircase from the front patio to the rear. The east side of the lot enjoys a new concrete retaining wall and the front driveway area now is defined with new redwood retaining walls creating yard/garden space and improving access to off-street driveway parking in front of the garages.
