You don’t just live in this East Hill home—you arrive here. Each day begins with a drive up a quiet, tree-lined street in Cresskill’s most coveted enclave, the façade of a Hamptons-inspired, James Pagano–designed residence coming into view like a private resort you get to call your own. The front door opens into a soaring two-story foyer, sunlight spilling down the sweeping spiral staircase, setting the scene for first days of school, black-tie evenings, and every milestone in between.
From there, the house starts to tell its story. The family room becomes the backdrop for your life’s highlight reel: a fire glowing in the stone fireplace, a drink poured at the wet bar, doors thrown open to an outdoor living room where another fireplace crackles under the night sky and friends linger long after dinner is over. The recently updated kitchen is where everyone inevitably ends up—Wolf and Thermador appliances humming quietly in the background while breakfasts are rushed, holidays are plated, and weeknights somehow feel special.
Upstairs, the home shifts from public to personal. The primary suite feels like checking into the same favorite hotel every night: his-and-her spa baths that make mornings painless and evenings restorative, a fireside sitting room that turns into your private hideaway once the rest of the house goes quiet. Down the hall, a dedicated children’s wing tells its own story—four bedrooms buzzing with personality, a media lounge filled with movie nights and sleepovers, and a back staircase that keeps the rhythm of the household flowing without ever disturbing the main entertaining spaces.
Then there’s the lower level, where the home stops being a residence and becomes a lifestyle. Imagine hosting a movie premiere in your own theater, shooting hoops on an indoor basketball court with lockers after school or late at night, sneaking in a workout in the gym before anyone wakes up, or watching creativity unfold in an art and education room built for projects, studying, and play. An additional bedroom and full bath mean the people you love most can stay as long as they like and still have a space that feels completely their own.
Even the practical details are part of the story: a 3-car garage to house the life you’ve built, a backup generator that keeps everything running no matter the weather, and craftsmanship that rewards a second look in every room. This isn’t just a luxury home near New York City—it’s the setting for the next chapter of your life, written in moments, memories, and long, lingering Sundays at home.
