Splendida Vita Al Coperto E All'aperto Con Vista Mozzafiato Sulla Baia

Welcome to a lovely slice of Montclair built in 1966, this four-bedroom, two and a half bathroom home has the kind of easy indoor-outdoor flow that makes you want to throw open the French doors and spend the rest of the day outside. There are three decks, a patio, terraced gardens, mature trees, and views city and Bay! A bright Japanese Maple greets you out front and pretty much sets the tone for the whole place. The entry starts with one of the house’s coolest details: floating mid-century cement stairs and a pebbled-floor entryway. Head up to the main living level, where the open 1960s character really shines. The living room is anchored by an epic brick fireplace, with warm hardwood floors and tons of natural light. French doors at one end open directly to a spacious outdoor patio. The big, wonderful kitchen opens into a generous family/great room with plenty of space for dining, lounging, working from home, or just hanging out. More French doors connect the room to the sunny back patio and deck space, creating an easy indoor-outdoor setup perfect for afternoon lounging, or a long dinner outside. And then there’s the bedroom level: all four bedrooms and laundry are upstairs, together on the same floor. Hardwood floors continue throughout, with loads of light and leafy treetop views. The primary bedroom has its own private deck with Bay View. It’s the kind of spot that makes a very strong case for lingering over your morning coffee. The large, spa-like primary bath features a large walk-in shower and gorgeous Mediterranean-blue tile. Three additional bedrooms share the upstairs hall, along with another full bath, upstairs laundry, two hall closets, and built-ins for plenty of storage. The fourth bedroom is currently an ideal home office, assuming you can concentrate with that view! It also has access to another outdoor lounging deck over the large two-car garage for sunset viewing. The two-car garage offers interior access to the house plus there is off-street parking, while the home’s multiple outdoor spaces give you lots of ways to enjoy the setting. And then there’s Montclair itself: leafy, relaxed, and level streets in the Village: bookstores, cafes, local shops, library, pickleball, Montclair Elementary, Fab, Sunday morning farmer’s market, and also there is easy access to trailheads and the hills. This lovely home feels removed from the city without actually being removed from the city.
