Historic Soul meets Modern Possibilities in Montrose: Welcome to 311 Centre Street where timeless architecture meets today's lifestyle. Set on over half an acre in South Orange's sought-after Historic Montrose, this 5BR/3BA home blends vintage character with fresh updates and room to dream. Inside, you'll find 12 spacious rooms, sky-high ceilings, and six original fireplaces (two working!), all freshly painted with newly refinished hardwood floors. Updated central air keeps things cool, and the expansive walk-up attic and 2-car detached garage with loft offer future potential for home offices, guest suites, or creative studios.Step outside and discover your own secret garden oasis designed by a certified Master Gardener and complete with a state-of-the-art in-ground drip irrigation system. Think: 150+ year-old cherry tree, figs, antique apples, grapevines, and hundreds of curated blooms. Bonus: there's space beyond the orchard for a pool, pickleball court, or outdoor lounge. Blocks from vibrant South Orange Village, parks, shops, dining, and Midtown Direct trains to NYC + Hoboken, this is more than a home. It's a rare chance to design your future in a place with real history and heart. GSMLS 3965786
