About This Home

As of January 2022

A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY!!! This beautiful property offers so much - a circa 1850 charming Colonial on almost 2 acres of private lawns and mature gardens with several additional outbuildings: BARN, COTTAGE, IN-GROUND POOL with CABANA and GREENHOUSE. The MAIN HOUSE with a classic slate floored Screened Porch has a beautiful NEW Kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz counters, stainless appliances and coffee bar which is open to the Dining and Living Room with its original bow window and molding detail. The large Family Room could also function as a Formal Dining Room if preferred. The Den offers an option for a home Office. The Primary Bedroom is generously sized and has an adjoining Nursery/Sitting/Dressing Room and private New full bath. The 2 additional Bedrooms are also good sized and share a full hall bath. The Walk-Up Attic is fitted with a Cedar Closet and offers plenty of storage. The BARN at 2100+/- sq ft has parking for 3 cars, workshop space, storage and multiple other uses. The COTTAGE at 324 sq ft has a stone fireplace, electricity (no running water), is cable ready and was currently used as a home gym but could also be a perfect home office. The CABANA offers storage and a changing room for those days and nights of swimming in the IN-GROUND POOL. The GREENHOUSE was imported from England. All this and still close to town for great dining and shopping. Ideal commuting location with Metro North, public transportation and I84 nearby.
