Iconic. Irreplaceable. A rare opportunity to own one of Montclair's most iconic residences. Known as Ardmore Place, this stately Cochrane Victorian was originally built for Montclair's first mayor and remains a landmark of architectural significance. Set on an extraordinary 13,500-square-foot, this three-story brick mansion offers timeless grandeur, modern luxury, and a setting that feels like your own private urban retreat. The home features 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, and a spectacular third-floor primary suite complete with a private balcony, mountain views, skylights, office, walk-in closet, spa-like bath, and its own dedicated laundry. The primary bath showcases dual vanities, a soaking tub, an oversized rain shower and generous natural light. Inside, historic craftsmanship shines with original moldings, trim, banisters, ornate woodwork, intact curved staircase, 8-foot pocket doors, hardwood floors throughout the first and second levels, and architectural eye-catchers at every turn. Formal living and dining spaces, a grand entry foyer, parlor, fireplaces, and a powder room inspired by European design create an atmosphere of refined elegance. The impressive professional kitchen is designed for serious cooks and entertainers alike, featuring a Sub-Zero Pro refrigerator, Wolf gas range with griddle and double ovens, pot filler, farmhouse and prep sink, exposed brick, granite counters, under-cabinet microwave, large pantry, two wine/beverage refrigerators, skylights, and both counter seating and table dining. Outside, the grounds are nothing short of exceptional: mature oak and maple trees, koi pond water feature, outdoor lighting, wrap-around covered porch with revival trim, and expansive green space that truly feels like your own private park. An oversized 2-car garage (plus additional off-street parking) completes this extraordinary offering.
