APARTMENTS
I have lived at Valley and Bloom for almost two years. It has been a pretty great experience overall. The apartments are modern and beautiful, especially mine, which has a balcony in my bedroom. All of the apartments have washers, dryers, and dishwashers that make life easier to live, especially for me as a mother with two children. There is ample closet space. The apartments are quiet. I love my apartment. It’s clean, spacious, sunlit, airy, and has lots of storage space in both of my bathrooms. It feels like a spa.
BUILDING
The lounge, kid’s playroom, two rooftops, two gyms, and courtyard are all great places to relax, lounge, and to meet other neighbors. One of my favorite things about living here is that my neighbors are diverse and mostly professionals. It’s quiet at night, most residents are focused individuals that seem to be doing well in life. I have met some great and intriguing people in this building. It is safe and it feels safe, which is important. There are many children in the building as well, which is great because the neighbors have play dates and there is a playground across the street from the building, which is like having a backyard. There is a library and two offices in the building where you can work from home easily. As an author and entrepreneur, I take advantage of these spaces when I can.
STAFF
Magda is a great Property Manager and I can tell that she has a great relationship with her team. Nothing is perfect, but I have chosen to communicate any issues I have living here to the leasing team. As I mentioned, the culture of Valley and Bloom is close and community-oriented. It’s a great place to live and Magda and Kyrra are pretty great women that do an impressive job running this place. I am comfortable communicating any issues to them, which says a lot about the culture of living here. I will be moving because my lifestyle needs have changed, but I will definitely miss living here.
Kyrra is all around amazing. She is the Assistant Community Manager and started after I moved in. She has added a light and warmth to the community that I believe all of the neighbors greatly appreciate. She also responds in a timely manner to requests and is easy to work with. Ariel is the Maintenance Manager. He has a warm personality, strong work ethic, and is thoughtful . If he comes to your apartment to fix an issue, he makes sure to ask if you need anything else and wants to ensure that you’re happy. The older gentleman (I don’t know his name) that works in maintenance is also a pleasure to see every morning. He gives the property a certain kind of charm and is a hard worker.
COMMUNITY
I love the sense of community and culture among the residents and staff. Almost every month, the building hosts a party or event of some kind. As a result, I have met and befriended several neighbors. Some of these friendships have become quite close. We have dinner with each other in each other’s apartments, babysit each other’s kids, and help each other navigate life in Montclair. Each person has knowledge to offer so taking a community-approach to living in Montclair with young kids has made life more fruitful.
LOCATION
Montclair is an amazing city. The school district has made parenting much easier. The teachers are amazing and honestly when my kids show me what they learn in school I am impressed. Given the downtown location of Valley and Bloom, it’s right next door to Montclair Community Pre-K school and the Developmental Learning Center, which has made my life unbelievably easier because I could just take my kids to school in less than 10 minutes. The buildings are also across the street from Hillside Elementary school and the bus stop for the other Montclair elementary schools. It’s a prime location. It’s about a 15-minute walk to the post office, is just down the street from Montclair’s finest restaurants and Whole Foods.

Magda, Reggie and Kaia are all so warm and helpful. They remember my name each time I see them and were so helpful on my move in day with all the logistics and stress. Great team!
Bravo!! Truly Grateful to Reginald Duvert, Kyrra Harrison and Valley & Bloom:
Reggie and Kyrra are an Exceptional Team, a well oiled machine who made this move to the Valley & Bloom Community my best move ever! Reggie and Kyrra are a great asset to LCOR and Valley & Bloom.
Reggie gave me an awesome full tour of the Valley & Bloom Community highlighting the main features of a model Apt available, the fitness center, parking, access to near by trains which is perfect for me (New York City Commuter), providing invaluable insight and information, going above & beyond to assist w the application process.
Kyrra and Reggie are extremely personable, welcoming and knowledgeable.. They both made Apt viewing & application process a great pleasure & made each day perfect.
When I reached out with any questions or requests for information, guidance Reggie and Kyra exemplify Leasing Management Professionals who care and are always on point. Never felt so secure and well taken care of with no worries. No stress.
Thank you for your kindness. It was a great pleasure meeting & talking with you both. Truly grateful for your time & the invaluable information during an exceptional tour and application process.
That I work at NYU Langone Health in NYC I really appreciate accommodating me to schedule tour, drop off documents, checks & picking up keys all while welcoming me to the Valley & Bloom community and neighborhood.
Can’t thank Reggie and Kyrra enough for their Excellent and Exemplary example of how a well oiled machine & well planned move became an awesome & extremely pleasant experience.

I have been a residence since 2016. My kids love it here as well. It is a beautiful place, people are wonderful.
The office staff, including the manager Ms Magda, Kyrra and Reggie are amazing. They always get creative with events, such as movie night outside in the courtyard, Taco Thursday, Farmer’s market with complimentary veggies and fruits, Haloween party, Thanksgiving event, Pet contest, Bagel/Donut Fridays.
They are always very positive and helpful.
Not to mention the maintenance team with Ariel and his partner are always there to solve the issues.
Highly recommend!

I love living at Valley & Bloom! The community is so wonderful and the leasing managers are really the absolute best. We had tiny things that needed fixing when we moved in and they tended to them immediately, and even gave us brand new counter tops (when we moved in there were a few minor spots from the previously person not cleaning the counter correctly and they replaced the whole thing!) On top of that, our managers sit in an office in our building during business hours, and I literally feel like they are my friends! They greet every single person by their name and we have fun little chats every time we walk by! I also really love the amenities and the mail room service. Everything is so clean and organized. I can’t recommend this place enough! We really feel welcome and at home here. Couldn’t be happier with living at Valley & Bloom!
