Welcome to 1340 Olive Street, a beautifully updated raised ranch in coveted Montclair--just moments from the iconic Richthofen Castle and a short stroll to Montclair Park. This classic blonde brick home offers 5beds+office/2baths across 2,594 square feet of highly functional living space. Step inside to an open-concept main level filled with natural light. The spacious living room flows seamlessly into a thoughtfully designed kitchen featuring modern cabinetry, period glass block accents, a HUGE center island, sunny south-facing window, and additional eat-in space.

The main floor includes a generous primary bedroom, two additional bedrooms with ample closets, and a full bath conveniently positioned near two hallway linen closets. Downstairs, you'll find a massive family room anchored by a brick-surround wood-burning fireplace. A dedicated bar area--already plumbed for a future wet bar--makes this the ultimate entertaining level. Two conforming basement bedrooms, an updated 3/4 bath, and a bright flex room (ideal for an office, gym, or media room) add incredible versatility. The oversized laundry area offers abundant storage, utility sink, and bonus space perfect for a workshop or wine cellar. Situated on a generous 7,800 sq ft lot, the outdoor spaces truly shine. Enjoy the raised covered front porch, host unforgettable gatherings on the HUGE back deck, and unwind around the natural gas firepit.
