RARE BRAND-NEW CONSTRUCTION IN VERONA'S SOUGHT-AFTER FOREST SECTION, backed by a 10-YEAR NEW HOME WARRANTY. Designed by mC Architecture + Design, this 5-bed, 4.1-bath modern colonial offers approx. 3,750 sq ft on three finished levels. The main level is made for entertaining: a front living room, a navy-paneled dining room, and a jewel-box butler's pantry with glass-front cabinetry, a wine refrigerator and walk-in pantry. The chef's kitchen pairs Thermador appliances, including a six-burner gas range, with a pot filler, shaker cabinetry to the ceiling, a full-height slab backsplash and a 7-foot double waterfall island, opening to the breakfast nook and a family room with gas fireplace and sliders to the deck. A mudroom with built-in bench and a powder room complete the level. Upstairs, the primary suite has a custom walk-in closet and a spa-like bath with double vanity and oversized shower with bench, plus three more bedrooms, two full baths and laundry. The walk-out lower level adds a sprawling rec room for a gym, media room or playroom, and a fifth bedroom with private entrance and full bath, ideal for guests. Oak floors, wainscoting, crown molding and recessed lighting throughout. Outside: a board-and-batten facade, new sod, a flat backyard, a paver patio with gas line for the grill, and an oversized detached garage. Walk to Forest Avenue Elementary, Verona Park and Bloomfield Avenue shops and dining; minutes to downtown Montclair and Midtown Direct trains to NYC.
