Montebello, NY 10901 18 Orchard Street

Tucked into a tree-lined neighborhood in the Village of Montebello, this 1937 Colonial sits on an oversized lot filled with charm, character, and quality updates throughout. Even more special: this home was custom-built by its original owner, who also built five other homes on the street, and it has remained lovingly maintained by the same family ever since. The quality of construction is second to none: the hardwood floors are solid and silent, not a single creak, which is a true testament to craftsmanship rarely seen today. In just the past month, the home has been thoughtfully refreshed: the entire interior was painted, hardwood floors sanded and stained, a new tile floor and vanity in the bathroom, and stylish new light fixtures installed throughout. The layout flows from the enclosed front porch into a warm, inviting living room with a classic brick fireplace and timeless architectural details, then into a formal dining room and functional kitchen that’s ready for everyday living and future personalization. Upstairs offers three sunlit bedrooms and full bath, all with gleaming hardwood floors. A door off the kitchen leads to the backyard and down to a full basement with high ceilings, a laundry area, and excellent potential for future finishing. Major updates within the past 5–8 years include a new roof, furnace, and freshly painted exterior. A detached two-car garage anchors the long driveway, and the wooded back portion of the double lot offers privacy, recreation, or room to expand. Ideally located near parks, downtown Suffern, NJ Transit, Mahwah, and major highways. This is a rare opportunity to own a legacy home built to last.
