It has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living areas, and 3,488 square feet on two stories.
The Munger Place property features a large wrap-around patio and wonderful curb appeal. Inside, real hardwood floors greet in the front living room, where there are soaring ceilings.

The home has two dining areas, and the second living area is on the second story. There are also four HVAC zones, a real luxury.

ROSEMONT PLACE STUNNER CRAFTSMAN WITH AUTHENTIC ERA TOUCHES
Open house: Saturday, Dec. 31, 2-4 p.m.
We love a great Craftsman, and the remodeled one at 611 N. Montclair Ave. is simply stunning. Built in 1923, it has been reimagined with the original feel preserved and modern touches added. This house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and 1,940 square feet on one story.
In the front living room, an original fireplace takes center stage, flanked by original built-in cabinets. The hardwoods are original to the house, restored to a gleaming shine. The kitchen features quartz counters, custom cabinetry, a cool exposed wood ceiling (which extends into the formal dining room, too), and new Kitchen Aid stainless steel appliances. Bathrooms are another wonderful touch, with new penny tile, gorgeous vanities, and a clawfoot bathtub in one. In back, there’s a good-sized backyard and fire pit.
