139 Gates Ave, Montclair Twp. NJ 07042-2006

Built in 1870, this meticulously maintained and historically significant 7BR, 4.1 BA 1870 Colonial Revival combines Neoclassical Influences and a Second Empire style Mansard Roof. It was once home to James J. Fielder, former Governor of New Jersey. Blending timeless architectural elegance with modern luxury and thoughtful upgrades, it is a true Montclair gem. A major 2017 renovation added a spectacular chef's eat-in kitchen, an additional bedroom, and expanded the basement. Sun-filled formal and informal spaces showcase soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, exquisite millwork, and beautifully preserved period details. The primary suite with ensuite bath and walk-in closet is a cozy retreat. The coveted second-floor laundry makes homekeeping a breeze. Outdoors is an oasis of stunning perennial gardens, mature trees, and a private, resort-like backyard with a glimmering pool, expansive patios, and multiple spaces for entertaining or relaxing. Updated HVAC, electric, plumbing, high-end appliances, new Pella windows throughout, 14 zone sprinkler system, a full house generator and security system provides comfort and peace of mind. Located in Montclair's sought-after Estate section and moments from our vibrant downtown's acclaimed restaurants, shops, parks, and Midtown Direct train service.
