16 John Street

Overview

Set on a sprawling 16,553 square foot lot in one of Bergen County's most coveted enclaves, 16 John Street is a 7,829 square foot statement of architectural intent. Six bedrooms, seven full and one half bath. Every material, every line, every system was chosen with one goal: a residence that feels as alive in twenty years as it does the day it's finished.

The exterior is where the story begins. Matte black stucco meeting the warm, organic grain of ACRE Siding a sustainable material that softens the home's modern edge into something tactile and human.

Oversized windows run throughout the home, drawing in the surrounding greenery from every angle and blurring the line between architecture and landscape. The effect is quietly transformative — a home that feels open and sunlit, yet cocooned in its own private world, insulated from the outside noise without ever feeling closed off.

Step through and the palette shifts to White Oak hardwood underfoot, and ceilings that rise to 10 feet on the main level. Every proportion here was tuned for volume for the way light moves through a room across a day.

Custom Italian Aster Cucine cabinetry with soft-close hardware and integrated LED lighting anchors a kitchen built for both quiet mornings and full-scale hosting. A waterfall quartz island, full-height slab backsplash, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and a 48" Wolf cooktop headline the main kitchen, while a hidden scullery kitchen keeps the mess out of sight, and a butler's bar and full dining room bar with glass wine storage keep the party going.

The primary suite is its own retreat: a soaking tub, oversized rain shower, and floating dual vanity set the tone, while radiant heated flooring warms nearly every bathroom in the home. Secondary baths carry the same DNA — designer tile, floating vanities, matte black and gold fixtures.

Descend and the home keeps giving: a mirrored gym with rubber flooring, a full sauna and steam room with cold plunge and massage room, a wet bar, an ensuite guest suite, an open-concept game room, and a fully pre-wired movie theater with tiered seating. This isn't a basement, it's a floor of the house with its own identity.

A heated 18x36 gunite pool anchors professionally landscaped grounds with full irrigation, a Belgian block driveway, and a fenced front yard with double gates. The 3-car garage comes equipped with electric openers and keypad entry.

Behind the beauty is real engineering: closed-cell spray foam insulation, Anderson 400 series windows, a dual-zone high-efficiency HVAC system with smart thermostats, 200-amp electrical service, and pre-wiring for whole-house audio, security, and EV charging. Backed by a 10-year Home Buyers Warranty, with custom selections still available for early buyers.

This is not just new construction. It's a home designed to feel timeless from day one.
