397 mountain view road

Situated in the lofty hills of Newark in an incredible forest lies the “Lodge,” a fantastic architectural gem blended perfectly into the forested landscape. At over 2,000 feet in elevation, this delightful contemporary home exudes a feeling of being on top of the world, with wonderful views of Burke Mountain and a panorama of mountains and sky. Southern exposure combined with the numerous large windows lights up the interior spaces, helping to make this an ideal home for entertaining, a peaceful retreat for family and friends, as well as a great base for outdoor recreation. Plentiful spaces to suit your requirements, including vaulted living spaces, a chef's kitchen, formal dining room, a fantastic primary suite, a loft bedroom, plus 3 additional bedrooms, 4 full baths, 4 fireplaces, a nice study, and a large wrap-around deck. Storage is plentiful and convenient, utilities are accessible and modern (there is a wood-fired auxiliary furnace), and a spacious laundry room is located on the main level. In fact, there’s so much offered that a separate list of features is provided. A meandering gated stone-surfaced drive secures the property, which includes a separate 4-bedroom 2 bath cottage with garage. It needs some TLC from previous tenant's water damage, but offers a great opportunity to house overflow guests or use it as an Airbnb or caretaker's residence. This unique 111 acre property will reward the buyer with complete privacy and seclusion in a beautiful natural world.
