"The true litmus test for a house is the human spirit -- how it feels for a person to move through and be in that house." – Art Busse
A rare opportunity to own the second of three distinctive residences on Skyline Blvd, built by award-winning designer Art Busse. Completed in 2001, this custom home draws inspiration from renowned Italian architect Renzo Piano and his coastal studio along the Mediterranean.
Set on nearly a quarter acre, the 4,046 sq ft home offers 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms—an exceptional blend of architectural vision and livable design.
Busse named it Float House, "because the house captures the hillside and allows one to float down. Also, the roof appears to float on top of the house. With lots of glass, it's a space that invites the outdoors inside, bringing a sense of calm."
Inside, rich natural textures, Brazilian cherry wood floors, and thoughtful design create a serene and sophisticated retreat. Two floating staircases serve as dramatic centerpieces, elegantly connecting all three levels.
The home begins with an entry foyer and attached two-car garage with EV charging on the top floor. One level down, the main living spaces feature a gourmet kitchen with high end appliances, expansive dining area, living room, and a bedroom with full bath—all oriented around a two-sided gas fireplace visible from nearly every angle. A deck off the dining room offers a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
On the next level, you'll find the primary suite and bathroom, two additional bedrooms, one full bathroom, and a spacious family room that opens through sliding glass doors to an expansive balcony with panoramic Bay and hillside views. Watching the sunset from here feels like a permanent vacation.
Additional features include:
Set in one of the area’s most desirable hillside neighborhoods, Skyline Blvd offers privacy, natural beauty, and quick access to regional park. Just 5 minutes drive from Montclair Village.
