Tanielle Powell Presents
A landmark chapter in Montclair’s architectural story, Daybreak is a rare, century-plus-old brick estate where historic grandeur meets a meticulously reimagined modern lifestyle. Set behind mature landscaping on 1.46 private acres along one of the town’s most distinguished addresses, the residence commands an unmistakable presence, timeless in scale, yet entirely suited to the way its next generation will live and entertain.
Originally built in 1890, the eight-bedroom, eight-and-one-half-bath mansion has been thoughtfully restored to preserve the romance and craftsmanship of its era while introducing the comforts expected of a world-class estate. Elegant formal rooms, richly layered architectural detail, and generous entertaining spaces unfold with an ease that feels both grand and deeply personal.
Outside, the grounds create a private retreat in the heart of Montclair, with sweeping lawns, exceptional privacy, and a setting designed for year-round enjoyment. From its state-of-the-art engineered indoor-outdoor pool experience and snow-melt system to its elevated vantage point with New York City views, Daybreak is a home defined by rare scale, provenance, and possibility.
Representing the buyer in this extraordinary $5 million acquisition was Tanielle Powell of The Powell Group at Prominent Properties Sotheby’s International Realty. More than a sale, Daybreak reflects the continued demand for singular homes that offer history, privacy, and a truly elevated lifestyle—just beyond Manhattan.
