Truly unique Craftsman style home: Just Listing in Montclair, NJ

 

Truly unique Craftsman style home built in 1912 by Alice Fenn Coffin, architectural designer, poet and playwright, eldest daughter of artist and illustrator Harry Fenn, sister-in-law of Arts & Crafts architects A.F. Norris and Dudley Strickland Van Antwerp, who likely signed off on the design.*

This home can be found in the heart of the Estate section of Montclair. There is a wonderful flow on all 4 levels with well proportioned bright rooms, high ceilings, hardwood floors and one-of-a-kind design elements throughout.


The first level includes original chestnut woodwork in the foyer and dining room, aligning the home to an Arts and Crafts pedigree. Yet, at the same time, the large and bright sunny living room also features an Inglenook fireplace nook reminiscent of some of Frank Lloyd Wrights works and, at the same time, offers multiple hand carved insets, cabinets and spaces to display your precious objects, which are stylistically a blend of Moroccan and Chinese influences.



Rounding out the first floor, is an Office/Sunroom with walk-out/walk-in access to backyard blue slate patio and yard. There is also an Eat-In kitchen overlooking yard with Caesarstone countertops, tiled backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Lastly, there is a wood panelled formal dining room with one of my favorite hidden treasures--a glass shelved "closet" that opens from both the dining room side and also from the kitchen.


There are a total of four bedrooms in this home of which three nice-sized bedrooms are on 2nd level with two baths; the primary bedroom (on the 2nd floor) offers custom closets and an en-suite bath. The third floor private suite with separate bedroom also provides an en-suite bath full bath, perfect for the in-laws or quarters for an in-home childcare provider. The finished basement features plenty of storage, an office/workshop space, a separate media/rec room and lastly, a laundry area.


Additionally, there is a fully fenced-in backyard and detached 2-car garage. Conveniently located near NJ transit train, town and shops. DeCamp bus to NYC at corner (unofficially). Now is your chance to live in Montclair with all it has to offer!

And, you are one mile away from my favorite restaurant: FAUBOURG, where we held our Slade Team holiday dinner.

About Montclair History

Montclair celebrated its sesquicentennial in 2018!

Many years before the beginning of European settlement, the area we know today as Montclair was part of the homeland of the Lenape Native Americans, who hunted and trapped here and passed over the mountains on their way to gather shellfish at the shore. Such place names as Watchung ("high hills") and Yantacaw ("place of the wood boundary") bear witness to their heritage.

The story of Montclair as a settled community, however, begins with the founding of Newark by English people from Connecticut in 1666. The lands of the Newark settlement extended westward to First Mountain.

Azariah Crane, his wife Mary Treat Crane, and their son Nathaniel, built a home in 1694 near the present intersection of Orange Road and Myrtle Avenue. Other pioneers arrived soon after, and the frontier settlement of Cranetown came into being in what is now the southern part of Montclair.

In 1679 Dutch settlers acquired land from the Lenape Indians west of the Passaic River and north of Newark, an arrangement later confirmed by the British government. Early in the 1700's John Speer, a member of the Dutch community, built a home that stands today on Upper Mountain Avenue just north of the Montclair border. Other Dutch settlers established farms in what is now the northern half of Montclair. This community became known as Speertown. Later Valley Road was laid out, thus providing a link between the two settlements.

During the Revolutionary War, First Mountain provided observation points for following the movements of the British to the east. A strong tradition holds that both George Washington and the Marquis de Lafayette were in Cranetown briefly in October of 1780. The boulder at the corner of Claremont Avenue and Valley Road marking the site of "Washington's Headquarters" is one of Montclair's better-known landmarks.

Speertown would remain a rural hamlet well into the 19th century; however, beginning about 1800, several developments led to the transformation of Cranetown into a small commercial center. One development was the opening of a general store by Israel Crane, who received trade from a wide area. In 1806, Crane led a group of businessmen in obtaining a charter from the State for building the NewarkPompton Turnpike. Constructed over the next several years, the turnpike came through Montclair as Bloomfield Avenue and vastly increased the flow of commerce. Israel Crane broke new ground as well in opening a wool mill on Toney's Brook. Other small industries followed. Also important for the economic development of the area was the completion of the Morris Canal in 1831. Meanwhile, in 1812, the Bloomfield ward of Newark became a separate township, which included the future Montclair. The village of- Cranetown now became known as West Bloomfield and a post office was established under that name.

The most decisive event for the emergence of Montclair was the coming of the railroads. In 1856, the Newark and Bloomfield Railroad Company inaugurated regular service to West Bloomfield. By changing trains at Newark and taking a ferry from Hoboken, people could travel from the future Lackawanna Plaza to New York in an hour and twenty minutes. Attracted to the country setting with its panoramic views, people in the cities began riding the train to West Bloomfield, some for Sunday excursions, others for vacations, and still others seeking to make their home here. By 1860 West Bloomfield was becoming a commuter town with its own marked identity and influential residents persuaded the post office to adopt the name Montclair.

Dissatisfaction with existing service led to a move to bring a second railroad to town. When Bloomfield authorities declined to authorize a bond issue to underwrite another railroad, Montclair residents were successful in securing from the State legislature a charter for a separate township. Thus in 1868, the Township of Montclair was created. The plan for another railroad went forward and by 1873 the Greenwood Lake line was completed with five stations in Montclair. In time, as many as six-thousand people would commute daily from Montclair via the two railroad lines. Trains also ran on Sunday.

The population of the community grew rapidly as New York businessmen and their families began building homes along the mountainside. The new residents sought to create in Montclair a model "country town" with convenient access to the city. Their vision was shared by a notable artist colony that began forming in the 1870's. A central figure was the landscape painter, George Inness. Able and dedicated community leaders endowed the town with superior schools, an excellent public library, a distinguished art museum and many large and influential churches.

By the opening of the 20th century, a richly diverse population characterized the community. A new influx of New Englanders was joined by African-Americans from the South and by Irish, Germans, Italians, Scandinavians and others newly arrived from Europe. Great mansions went up, but so did many modest homes. Between 1880 and 1930, Montclair's population leaped from 5,147 to 42,017. Talented people continued to be attracted to the community and by the 1930's more than 130 Montclair residents were listed in each issue of WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA.

The period following World War II was marked by tremendous expansion of the metropolitan area. New suburbs popped up in the hinterland along with shopping malls and corporate offices. No longer a country town, Montclair faced the challenge of preserving its character as a gracious residential community while at the same time sustaining its aging commercial centers. Social changes of the 1960's and 70's brought further challenges. In 1977 the Board of Education established a system of magnet schools with the aim both of achieving racial balance and of enriching the curriculum. After many years under the commission form of government, the community adopted the manager-council plan. Revenue considerations led to the Town of Montclair returning to the status of Township.

Today Montclair is a community of about 39,000 inhabitants. Never content to be merely a "bedroom community," Montclair is nevertheless a family-centered town. Its heritage in education has been enhanced by its innovative public and private school educational programs and the expanded offerings at Montclair State University. Once again our hillside has become a haven for artists and writers. This is a seasoned community whose many old houses enhance its charm, yet at the dawn of a new century, Montclair remains alive to the spirit of the times.

The Year In Real Estate for Union, NJ 2022 by Mark Slade

 



 

Hi this is Mark Slade with Keller Williams and I'm here to review the Union Real Estate Market for 2022.  We will be comparing the performance in a variety of categories versus 2021.

It Was a very good year and most evidenced by the fact that average sale price rose 8.5% from the previous year’s $433,000 to $470,000 for 2022.  That represents that buyers paid 4.4% over asking price, which had risen to $450,000.  

As you'll notice unit sales were down. In fact, unit sales fell to 504 from the 634 units sold in 2021; that's a 20% drop in unit sales.  However, it's really more reflection of the lack of inventory than anything else and there's not a town that I've tracked--we track about a dozen area towns--that have showed any increases in units sold.

Most of the towns in the area have seen even higher percentage drops in units. South Orange for instance dropped 43% in units, Maplewood dropped 34% in units. So, this is not an uncommon or unexpected statistic.

There was one measure that showed what we view as a slight deterioration and that is--Days on Market.  Days on Market (DOM) were a little strange - it's one of the only towns that went up, meaning that it would take longer to sell, and Union registered an increase in DOM of 1.5 days.  Still, all that being said, having a DOM of 27.8 days is not really a bad stat. 


 

I also like to segregate the performance into three buckets:  Sold For Over Asking, Sold At Asking and Sold For Less Than Asking.  Union showed improvement across the board.  The percentage of homes that sold under asking was 16% in 2022, while another 11% of the homes sold at asking, and better yet, 73% of the homes sold in 2022, sold for over asking.  This means that 84% of the homes sold, sold for asking and above.  Interestingly, the highest recorded sale price was $880,000 for a home at 113 Locust Drive.  The highest percent over asking was actually for a different listing and it sold for 131 percent of asking price and was located at 388 Tower Street  Conversely, the lowest price paid as it relates to asking price, registered at 79% of asking.  So, overall, there was a 54% spread between the best performance and the worst performing listing in 2022.

That's a key metric and that's pretty similar to the results in the year before—2021.  In 2021, the highest price for a listing in Union was $780,000 and the highest percent paid over asking was actually 42%.  These are all very good stats and we expect the market to continue to be a solid one in 2023 due to the lack of inventory and of course keeping in mind that we have recently seen interest rates that have moderated.  All in all, we expect to see a year very similar to 2022 with units sold. We do expect to still see over asking as the end result and while it may not be as high as the 4.4% in 2022, we still expect it to see an over asking scenario. 


 

If you have any questions feel free to please reach out to us. You can do so via email which is listed below or at my cell phone which is 917-797-5059. You can also get a copy of my book How To Sell Your Home For More Money, once again, by calling or texting me.  You should also know that if you become a client of the Slade team you can use our moving truck, free of charge, you just to fill it back up with gas when you're done; this applies only to local moves in the area or for de-cluttering your property if you are listing with us.  If you have any questions please feel free to call me I look forward to hearing from you and have a great day thank you.

Glen Ridge Real Estate Sales in 2022 versus 2021 by Mark Slade


 

Hi, this is Mark Slade from Keller Williams, and this is your Glen Ridge 2022 real estate recap.  As you can see from the graphic or from listening to our You Tube Video, it was a great year for real estate in Glen Ridge as it similarly was in neighboring towns like Montclair and South Orange and Maplewood.

 

Let's get right to the facts, starting with total units sold—with 108 units closed in 2022, representing an almost 18% drop in units from the 131 units sold in 2021, but this is not cause for alarm. In fact and relatively speaking, Glen Ridge is one of the markets that witnessed a much smaller drop in units sold when compared to neighboring towns that saw a drop in units sales by as much as 43%.  This drop in unit sales due to a lack of inventory and not because there's a lack of buyers, as you will soon see.

 You can also listen to the video if you prefer, by clicking on this image:


The average list price rose from $766,000 to $805,000, which is a 5.2% in list price average.  At the same time, the average sale price climbed to $1,007,000, that's a 12.5% increase from the average list price in 2021.  Furthermore, it’s interesting to note that the average sale price in Glen Ridge was about $30,000 less than the average sale price that was achieved in Montclair.    In 2021 Glen Ridge homes sold for 16.8 percent over asking, but, in 2022, they sold for a whopping 25% Over Asking, which is one of the healthiest increases over asking in the area; Montclair’s results were 23.8% for 2022. 

 

Given that seeing home sales with a “one in front of them—“meaning $ Million Dollar Sales—is becoming so commonplace given the growth in area real estate values, I like to evaluate these sales and so, the number of homes that sold for over a million in 2022, topped the charts at 48 homes sold for over $1 million and that represented 36.6% of the total units sold.  This also represents an increase by one-third over the number of homes that sold for over a million in 2021 which registered at 36 units and correlated into 27.5% of the inventory sold.

 

Another reflection on the health of the real estate market in Glen Ridge is that the Days on Market (DOM)--a statistic that when it goes down shows that it's an even stronger market--were shaved by two days off from the Market in 2021; in 2021 DOM were 21.1 and dropped to 19.3 in 2022.

 

I also like to breakout sales performance into three buckets: 1. homes sold for under asking, 2 homes sold at asking and 3. homes sold for over asking.  As you'll see here there was a pretty significant increase in performance, which you would expect having seen the previous stats I've presented.  As it turns out, 4.6% of Glen Ridge homes sales in 2022, sold for less than asking, that is less than half than what they did in the previous year.  Another 3.7% of the homes sold at Asking, which was also a drop, coming in at a touch less half as much as what we experienced in 2021.  Most exciting is that we saw a significant increase by 10 points to 91.7% of the homes selling for over asking.  The highest price paid in 2022 was $3.1 million for a house at 412 Ridgewood Ave, this represents a $400,000 drop from the highest price paid in 2021 which is three and a half million also on Ridgewood Ave.

 

                                                       412 Ridgewood Ave, Glen Ridge

The highest percent paid for over asking in 2021 was 53% but climbed in 2022 to 65%; at the same time there were several homes that sold for between 60% to 65% over asking. 

 

So far this year, out of the box in 2023, we're expecting a jump start to what we witnessed in 2022.  Our current forecast for 2023 is expected to provide similar results in terms of number of units sold.  With inventory continuing to be at all-time lows, we also expect to see strong performance with prices continuing to rise.
