Welcome to 29 Highland Avenue - a shockingly gorgeous Queen Anne Victorian estate set on more than 1 lush, private acre landscaped by the legendary Olmsted Brothers (the masterminds behind Central Park). Built in 1858 with what is believed to be pieces of a Scottish castle once owned by William Wallace's descendants, this iconic Montclair property blends historic charm with modern living. Step inside to a grand foyer with soaring ceilings, stained-glass windows, and intricate woodwork. The great room, formal dining room, solarium, library, and eat-in kitchen each feature custom finishes and 7 fireplaces. The primary suite offers a serene retreat with a spa-style bath, freestanding tub, and sitting room. The third floor is a private haven with 4 bedrooms, a full bath, laundry, and a den with NYC skyline views. Luxury resort-style amenities include a pool, jacuzzi, stone patios, and a renovated carriage house with a kitchen and bath above a 4-car garage ideal for guests, an artist studio, or remote work. Located on one of Montclair's most desirable streets, this estate is a rare opportunity to own a legacy property that combines timeless elegance with modern comfort.
