14 Dorset Lane, Short Hills, NJ 07078
Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in Short Hills’ coveted Hartshorn neighborhood, this exceptional custom residence blends timeless architecture with modern luxury and everyday livability. Framed by mature trees and lush landscaping, the home makes an immediate impression—classic, elegant, and quietly grand—offering the privacy of a retreat with the convenience of town just moments away.
From the very first approach, the setting feels special. Warm exterior lighting, manicured grounds, and gracious proportions create a sense of arrival that only deepens as you step inside.
Inside, refined craftsmanship and natural light define every space. Soaring ceilings, detailed millwork, rich hardwood floors, and oversized windows create interiors that feel both elevated and welcoming.
The main level unfolds effortlessly from room to room—perfectly suited for both large-scale entertaining and intimate gatherings. A stunning great room anchored by a fireplace invites relaxed evenings, while the formal dining room, framed by architectural columns and a coffered ceiling, offers an elegant backdrop for celebrations and holidays alike.
Every space feels intentional, balanced, and beautifully scaled.
At the center of it all, the chef’s kitchen delivers both beauty and performance. Custom cabinetry, Quartzite countertops, and professional-grade Viking and Sub-Zero appliances combine with generous prep space and seating to create a true gathering place.
Sunlight pours through surrounding windows and French doors, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. Whether hosting or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this space effortlessly adapts to the rhythm of daily life.
Designed with today’s lifestyle in mind, the home offers remarkable versatility. Multiple rooms on the main level can function as private offices, creative studios, a secondary primary suite, or additional bedrooms—ideal for evolving needs.
Thoughtful flow, open sightlines, and comfortable proportions ensure that each space feels connected yet distinct, allowing for both productivity and relaxation.
Upstairs, the bedrooms offer comfort, light, and a sense of retreat. The primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself—featuring vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, a private balcony overlooking the grounds, and a spa-inspired bath designed for complete relaxation. A generous walk-in closet with custom organization elevates everyday living to a boutique experience.
A spacious first-floor bedroom provides the flexibility of a secondary primary suite or convenient guest quarters, while additional bedrooms are equally inviting and well-appointed.
The finished lower level expands the home’s lifestyle appeal with beautifully designed play, recreation, and lounge spaces. A playroom, custom bar area, media zones, additional bedroom/office, and open gathering areas create the perfect environment for entertaining, game nights, or relaxed weekends at home.
It’s a space that feels less like a basement and more like an extension of the home’s refined living areas.
Step outside and discover a backyard that rivals a private resort. Expansive, level lawn stretches beneath a canopy of mature trees, offering space to play, entertain, or further customize. Bluestone patios provide multiple gathering areas, while a covered pavilion and outdoor kitchen set the stage for unforgettable evenings under the stars.
From summer dinners to cozy autumn nights by the fire, this outdoor environment transforms everyday moments into lasting memories.
Set in one of Short Hills’ most desirable locations, just steps from Gero Park’s expansive green space, tennis and pickleball courts, golf course, pool, and playgrounds, the home places everyday recreation within effortless reach.
With top-rated schools, vibrant downtown shops and dining, convenient NYC transit, and quick access to Newark Liberty International Airport, the location perfectly blends privacy, lifestyle, and accessibility—offering the best of both retreat and connection.
Elegant yet comfortable. Grand yet welcoming. Designed for celebration, relaxation, and everything in between.
