Montclair, N.J. (January 31, 2024) – NAI James E. Hanson, the largest New Jersey-based full-service independent commercial real estate firm, announces it has negotiated the sale of a 6,000-square-foot office building located at 7 North Mountain Avenue in Montclair, N.J. NAI James E. Hanson’s Jessica Curry represented the buyer, Birkhold and Maider, LLC, and Evergreen Commercial’s Joe Defeo represented the seller, Looney Realty, LLC, in the transaction.
7 North Mountain Avenue is a three-story office building originally constructed as a Victorian-style single family home. Recently renovated by the seller, the building boasts stained glass windows, fireplaces with tile surrounds in each office, inset seating, and other appealing features. Beyond its design, a location at the busy intersection of North Mountain Avenue and Bloomfield Avenue across from the Montclair Art Museum provides easy access to the wide range of restaurants, shops and entertainment options found in downtown Montclair. The property is also just one mile from the Walnut Street NJ Transit Station offering direct access to New York City and is approximately 12 miles away from the Newark Liberty International Airport.
Birkhold and Maider, LLC, is a full-service law firm specializing in personal injury representation, claims support, settlement, litigation, municipal and criminal cases, and more. Relocating from their office in Nutley, N.J., the firm recognized the opportunity to make a strategic investment in the future of their growing business through the purchase of the newly renovated and well-located space.
“7 North Mountain Avenue’s high visibility and optimal location within Montclair were driving forces in the buyer’s decision to purchase the property,” said Curry. “The distinct historical charm of the building made this transaction very unique, and I wish Birkhold and Maider, LLC, all the best with their new space.”
