The Junior League of Montclair Newark has zeroed in on its showcase house for 2006. The home selected is actually two properties, 4 and 4A Stonebridge Road, located in Montclair's Estate Section, consisting of a grand main house and a carriage house. When I went to snap the home, a friendly dog ambled across the property over to me and was so gregarious, he actually hopped into my open car. After gently shooing the doggy out, he scampered off to play on the magnificent grounds. Here's the doggy to the manor born...
Sure, the pup isn't a bold-faced name like Michael Strahan, owner of the last showhouse, but we hope he makes some star-like demands to the designers, maybe for a specially designed dog house with a plush doggy pillow.
Wheatons are really making a comeback. My (proud) mutt and I used to walk past there a lot. It's a hugie with mammoth land, at least for suburbia standards.

Lots of Showhouses use the same property every year, including Kips Bay in NYC.
This is the perfect Showhouse property. They should use it year after year.
I wish you great luck Junior League. You work hard for kids at risk in this community. Thanks for all you do at the at the Neighborhood Childcare Center, for all the volunteer hours you offer at the soup kitchen and for all the lives you make better.
