Located on the coveted Piedmont side of Montclair, 6262 Bullard is a 4BD/2.5BA Mid-Century with a flexible, open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, and oversized windows and skylights that draw light into the gracious rooms. Tastefully remodeled with an eye to comfort, the home features an elegantly updated kitchen, modern baths, spacious bedrooms, and a large family room with separate entrance. An expansive back garden offers abundant space for a play area or organic garden, and multilevel redwood decks are ideal for entertaining. Near excellent Montclair schools, the home is moments from Montclair Village with its Sunday Farmer’s Market and eclectic mix of independent shops, restaurants, and outdoor entertainment. A quick drive or bike ride brings you to Joaquin Miller and Redwood Reinhardt Regional Parks with miles of hiking and biking trails.
Shaded by a flowering magnolia tree and completely enclosed for privacy, the expansive, terraced front garden has been beautifully landscaped with butterfly bushes, hydrangeas, geraniums, silver clouds, and citrus trees. To one side, a patio with charming pergola is an ideal spot for morning coffee or evening star gazing.
The front door opens onto a spacious entryway with burnished hardwood floors. To one side, the sun-washed living room enjoys a vaulted ceiling and skylight, and large casement windows overlook the front garden. Flanked by wide windows, a brick fireplace with exposed chimney graces one wall providing warmth on winter evenings.
Through an arched doorway on the other side of the entry, the cheerful dining room is lit by wide casement windows overlooking the front garden. Open to the dining room, the remodeled kitchen features expansive stone countertops, abundant cabinets for storage, a Bosch dishwasher, and gas range.
At the back of the home, an en suite bedroom features a vaulted ceiling with skylight and includes a convenient powder room. Two windows on the rear wall overlook the amazing backyard and deck. The adjacent second bedroom on this level also overlooks the deck. The shared bath features a shower over tub, stone top vanity, and a wide window looking out over the treetops.
The expansive family room features dual skylights and a vaulted ceiling; a multipane window overlooks the backyard and a glass door opens onto the front patio. A wall of tall shelves provides abundant space for books, storage, or display, and a tall ladder leads up to a whimsical recessed play or storage area with skylights.
Downstairs, the primary bedroom is a spacious suite with its own sitting area and sliding glass door onto the top deck. A secondary bedroom enjoys hardwood floors, windows on two sides, and a large closet. The bedrooms share a full bath with walk-in corner shower. Also on this level is a laundry room and abundant storage space.
Multiple levels in the enormous back yard provide flexibility for whatever you can imagine: entertaining, relaxing, gardening, or playing croquet. Stairs lead from the top deck to an expansive patio and lawn surrounded by open fencing to keep dogs or little ones corralled while preserving the view of the wooded area below. From there, a second staircase descends through the lush grassy downslope planted with California poppies, sticky monkey flower, periwinkle, and vinca. At the foot of the staircase, an enormous redwood deck is nestled among the treetops overlooking the tranquil hillside.
