28 S Mountain Rd
Millburn, NJ
Sitting on a quiet, picturesque Millburn street, this distinctive Tudor brings together the warmth of a character-filled home and the ease of having restaurants, shopping, schools and parks within a short stroll, with the NYC train just 0.4 miles away. Elegance and convenience come together in a setting where quiet mornings at home, dinner in town and a day in the city all fit naturally into life.
The home opens to a gracious hall, where a sculptural winding staircase creates a dramatic architectural focal point. Along the stairway, a graceful window seat beneath diamond-paned leaded glass adds an unexpected flourish—a detail that makes passing between floors part of the home’s appeal.
The warm and welcoming formal living room pairs a wood burning fireplace with beautifully detailed built-in shelving and cabinetry. Molded trim gives the shelving architectural presence, with open display space for favorite books and collected pieces and closed storage below. A broad wall of windows complements the room’s generous proportions. It is a setting for evenings by the fire, conversation over drinks or simply settling into a favorite book at the end of the day.
Through an arched opening, the elegant dining room sets the scene for lingering dinners. Gleaming hardwood floors, classic molding and an expanse of windows give the room a refined simplicity, ready for both a beautifully set holiday table and a spontaneous supper with friends. Its connection to the living room lets conversation and company move naturally between the spaces.
The kitchen features abundant cabinetry in a warm neutral palette, newer stainless steel appliances, ample counter space, and a built-in breakfast bar with the warmth and appeal of a wood table. Morning coffee, a quick lunch, or conversation with the cook all find a place here. An arched opening leads to the expansive family room, connecting meal preparation with the activity beyond.
Large, sunlit and surrounded by windows, the family room offers a wonderfully open setting for everyday life. There is space for generous seating and entertaining. A weekend breakfast can give way to an afternoon of reading, games or catching up together. For larger gatherings, the room comfortably brings everyone into the same space. Two sets of French doors open to steps leading down to the patio and yard, extending the room’s reach outdoors and making al fresco dinners feel like a natural part of life at home.
Upstairs, the bright and airy primary suite has a high tray ceiling and arched windows that give the room its distinctive shape and sense of openness. . A built-in window seat offers a quiet reading nook, while surrounding cabinetry, generous closets and additional storage keep the room beautifully organized. An en suite bath completes the retreat with room to begin and end the day at a gentler pace.
Three additional spacious bedrooms and a hall bath complete the second floor, keeping all four bedrooms together. Whether accommodating family, welcoming guests or creating a dedicated office, these rooms offer flexibility without sacrificing the convenience of a shared bedroom level.
Outside, the patio and yard have been thoughtfully arranged for dining, entertaining and relaxation. A paver patio accommodates both a dining table and a separate seating area, allowing lunch to linger and dinner guests to settle in afterward. A sheltered lounge offers another gathering spot, while mature greenery frames the setting and offers privacy. A new roof, new AC systems, and recently painted interiors and exterior add thoughtful, practical improvements to daily life. All of this is just moments from downtown Millburn, the Midtown Direct train to NYC, parks, dining, and shopping, offering an exceptional combination of convenience, neighborhood charm, and distinctive style
