Property Description

This 'one of a kind' residence is unlike anything in the coveted Boro of Watchung. Situated at the end of a glorious cul-de-sac of custom homes lies our subject. This 4-sides brick masterpiece towers over Johnston Drive offering winter views from its lofty perch. The cobblestone driveway leads to an 11 vehicle garage with 4 door bays; then descends to a stone, grotto-like, passageway to the rear grounds, spa and regulation tennis court. It's essentially impossible to adequately describe the grounds; though the images will offer a sense of this old world, European-type grandeur. Once inside the warm and engaging confines of the Butternut paneled foyer; an interior of large, distinctive rooms unfolds. Ten foot ceilings run throughout the 1st level where French doors lead to adjacent spaces while lots of glass offer views and egress to the rear lawn, patio area and the aforementioned spa and tennis court. Eight rooms are sprawled out over the home's massive 1st level along with 3 fireplaces & a pizza oven. Five bedrooms, 5 baths & 3 more fireplaces are found on level ll. The enormous primary suite features 2 separate baths, a dressing room, a fireplace, walk-in closets, a volume ceiling and a dressing/sitting lounge. Four additional bedrooms are nicely served by 3 full baths inclusive of an ensuite with a wrap-around loft. The ground-level basement houses 11 vehicles, though it may just as easily serve as a massive recreation area while still accommodating 4 full sized vehicles.
