About this home

Own a piece of Bergen County history. The iconic Blackledge-Gair House, one of Cresskill's most treasured historic stone homes, offers a rare opportunity to own a property rich in character, charm, and architectural significance. Situated on a generous 100' x 100' lot, this unique residence showcases timeless craftsmanship and historic details that cannot be replicated in today's construction. Originally designed as a two-bedroom home, the property was thoughtfully converted by a previous owner into a spacious one-bedroom residence, with the option to restore the second bedroom if desired. The home features 2 fireplaces, 1.5 baths, a living room, family room, dining room, and kitchen, offering a functional layout while maintaining its historic character. Updates have been made throughout the home including new flooring installed in 2019, adding a refreshed interior feel. A detached two-car garage with loft provides exceptional storage, workshop, studio, or flex-space potential, further enhancing the property's versatility. The home's original stone construction, period details, and historic significance make it a truly unique offering for buyers seeking something beyond the ordinary. Conveniently located near schools, parks, shopping, dining, and major transportation, this property combines historic charm with everyday accessibility. Property is being sold as-is. Buyer responsible for all due diligence regarding improvements, renovations, and municipal approvals.
