About This Home

As of September 2021

Perched on the bucolic Closter Road, in the fabled historic district of the Palisades, across from the library, and just around the bend from the Post Office, sits the iconic Bluebell Cottage. This one bedroom, one bath property, built in 1919, and sitting on just over a 1/4 acre, has undergone an epic renovation, with a careful eye placed on restoring as much of the home's original detail as possible. The floors, down to the iron grates, are all original as are the windows, the front door, and the exterior charm, returned at long last to its namesake blue. With beamed, vaulted ceilings in the living room and a formal dining room ( easily converted to a second bedroom) this gorgeous, modern, farmhouse styled, cottage offers all the simplicity, freedom and flexibility you could ask for. Open and lush, the back yard, with its stone patio and beautifully crafted, freestanding deck, presents endless opportunities to play and entertain. Perfect as a starter home or for those looking to downsize. An ideal weekend getaway property for anyone living in NYC, with its proximity to Sneden's Landing, the hiking and spectacular views offered by Tallman State Park, and the world class restaurants of Sparkill and Piermont. Just 13 miles from the GWB - exit 4 on the Palisades - this famous chalet, lovingly restored to its former glory, graciously awaits the author(s) of its next chapter.
