431 Springfield Avenue Summit, New Jersey 07901

14 Pine Grove Avenue, Summit, New Jersey

A once-in-a-lifetime hidden Summit treasure! This superbly appointed 5,000+ sq. ft. custom home, designed by Joan Boone architect, South Orange, NJ, embodies the contemporary styling of a luxurious Palm Beach oasis, secreted away on a rare 1.6 acre property poised the end of a private tree-lined drive and circular paver block parking court.

Crisp white stucco and handsome entry pillars distinguish its façade, beautifully couched amid lush plantings and garden beds. Inside, abundant light and studied open spaces are the hallmarks of this fine residence. A marble-floored entry foyer makes a dramatic statement as it introduces the elegant living room and formal dining room, each sunken a few steps down, set beneath high tray ceilings with pillared entries and pale hardwood floors. A bank of transomed floor-to-ceiling windows illuminate the living room that showcases a massive central fireplace with pillared mantel and marble surround.

A fabulous open concept family room and chef’s kitchen addition span the rear of the home, enhanced with the ambience of a sleek gas fireplace peninsula of marble and glass that juts out between them. Designed as the heart of the home by the current homeowners, this space captures the secluded retreat-like setting comprised of an idyllic in-ground pool, bluestone patio with summer kitchen, manicured lawns and a private lighted deck off the family room with stairs that descend to a secluded lower terrace surrounded with stone walls and walking paths that meander throughout the grounds. A storybook potting shed on the property is a charming feature for the avid gardner. The kitchen features a wall of windows and pool access for gracious extended al fresco dining and entertaining. trimmed with pale “greige” washed custom cabinetry topped with granite, high-end appliances, with a built-in desk and a large center seated island as its centerpiece. A breakfast area with bowed windows enjoys the tranquil pool views, while a fully-equipped butler’s pantry and wet bar with a swing door connects to the dining room from the kitchen for ease of service.

Kitchen & Breakfast Area

A sumptuous first-floor master suite with two sets of sliding doors to the pool area is de rigueur for this home, complete with gas fireplace and chic marble surround, pristine wall-to-wall carpeting, dual custom closets that flank the bedside poised beneath a high tray ceiling. The luxurious marble-floored master bath has all the essentials -- a glass-block wall provides a modern lighted backdrop for the center jetted tub flanked on either side by a shower and separate commode. Dual vanities and two custom-fitted walk-in closets are perfect enhancements. A laundry room/mud opens to the attached three-car garage adds convenience, while an elegant powder room with mirrored wall and marble floors adds sophistication.

Three generously-sized bedrooms are privately set on a wing of their own, each with double mirror-doored closets, high ceilings, hardwood floors and ample windows that offer lush property views. Two bedrooms are ensuite; one accesses the rear deck. A spacious hall bath with shower serves the third. A second-floor open loft offers extra space and versatility, with vaulted skylt ceiling and flying cross beams, wall-to-wall carpeting -- ideal as an exercise, office and/or play area -- buyer’s choice -- along with walk-in attic storage.

The finished lower level offers additional leisure space for informal gatherings and recreation, complete with a media room and game room and a custom wet bar with counter seating. The piece de resistance is a 2,400-bottle wine cellar and tasting room hidden behind etched glass doors, certain to please the wine aficionado. A huge storage room completes this level.
