This stately center-hall red brick Colonial sits on a .75 acre lot on the premier Mountain Avenue. Enter through double doors into a gracious foyer flanked by a formal dining room and living room with spectacular fireplace. A richly paneled office with gas fireplace and high-gloss den with custom built-ins add warmth and character. The chef's kitchen features Rutt cabinetry with walnut-lined drawers, full-size Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, premium appliances, and breakfast area. A hidden TV lowers beneath the picture window. The wet bar opens to a spectacular great room with coffered ceilings, Rutt built-ins, a third fireplace, and French doors to a patio overlooking the pool and private park-like grounds. In addition, a tucked away side patio offers seamless alfresco dining. Upstairs, the primary suite features three closets and en-suite bath. Two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath; a fourth has a hall bath with soaking tub. A hidden back staircase and charming balcony complete the level. The third floor offers a bedroom, full bath, and bonus/office space. The walkout lower level includes garage space for three cars, mudroom with builtins, powder room, a gym, large recreation room, laundry, and abundant storage. With over 5700 square feet of indoor living space this is a truly special offering on one of Ridgewood's most coveted addresses.
