The Millburn duplex blends classic country cottage charm with thoughtful design that prioritizes privacy. Each unit shares only garage walls with its neighbor—ensuring that even the covered patios remain entirely private. Designed as mirror images, these two-story homes offer a harmonious yet independent living arrangement.
At the front, a welcoming porch framed by slender columns on wood-trimmed bases sits beneath a gentle gabled roof. Slightly recessed, the entry porch creates a cozy nook—perfect for a porch swing or a pair of chairs. It’s the kind of spot made for quiet summer moments and easy conversation, with lemonade in hand.
Step inside to find a discreet coat closet tucked into an alcove behind the front door. The interior unfolds into a relaxed, open-concept layout where the living room flows effortlessly into the kitchen. A raised peninsula-style eating bar offers a casual divide, while the dining area continues toward a sliding glass door that opens to the secluded patio. Sunlight pours into the main floor through wide, multipaned windows along the side wall, with an additional stream of natural light from the kitchen window above the sink. The kitchen itself is efficiently arranged with cabinetry and countertops along two walls, plus the peninsula for extra prep or dining space. Just around the corner, a half bath and laundry area are conveniently tucked into the attached one-car garage.
Upstairs, each unit includes two bedrooms and a full bathroom with a dual-sink vanity and linen storage. Both bedrooms are enhanced by rectangular bay windows—ideal for built-in window seats with hidden storage underneath, adding charm and functionality.
