The Rockcliffe Apartments — Montclair’s only cooperative apartment building — offers beautifully appointed one, two, and three-bedroom units located within a short distance of both downtown Montclair and downtown Verona.
These spacious, thoughtfully laid-out homes are ideal for families of all sizes. No cookie-cutter units here — high ceilings, original moldings, and elegant proportions create a timeless canvas for your personal vision.
Built in 1940 by Sugarman & Berger, the renowned architects behind the New Yorker Hotel in NYC, The Rockcliffe was designed to take full advantage of its elevation of 800 feet and prime location on First Mountain.
The building is nestled on five lush acres featuring sustainable gardening and a beautifully landscaped backyard with a stone patio and fountain. It’s not just a place to live — it’s a place to unwind and connect. Enjoy a sunset glass of wine with neighbors or sink into one of the Adirondack chairs with a good book. Additional amenities include a 24-hour resident superintendent and concierge service.
And did we mention the views? Lower floors look out onto parklike surroundings, while upper floors showcase sweeping vistas of the NYC skyline to the east and glowing sunsets over the Watchung Mountains to the west.
One of The Rockcliffe’s most appealing features is its prime location. You’ll enjoy the convenience of being within easy reach of both bustling downtown Montclair and picturesque downtown Verona. And for those beautiful sunny days, The Rockcliffe is situated on five beautiful eco-friendly grounds with plenty of space for kids to play and adults to relax.
In addition, essential destinations are convenient: catch a bus or train to New York City, explore Kips Castle, stroll through the Montclair Art Museum or Van Vleck Gardens, or spend a peaceful afternoon at Verona Park. Everyday essentials and shopping await at Pilgrim Plaza in Verona and countless shops in Montclair, and families will appreciate the close proximity to Montclair Schools.
