About This Home
As of January 2026One of the most architecturally-distinct homes in the coveted Pelham Heights neighborhood, 253 Cliff features extraordinary leaded glass windows, beamed ceilings, hard wood floors, and incredible detail. With a center hall layout, the house features a spacious living room with wood-burning fireplace and a very special garden room, a formal dining room with French doors to balcony, a renovated powder room, and nice, open, eat-in kitchen with laundry that awaits your own imagination. A generous second floor landing lends privacy between the master bedroom with generous closets and en suite vintage bath and three other bedrooms and hall bath. The finished, walk-out lower level has an additional 600sf with family space and separate room (would make for a great office) plus unfinished storage space and garage. Set above the tree tops and adjoining house below with open western views, the home has a private front bluestone patio and a generous side yard canopied by one of the town's most magnificent and revered oak trees. Located on a prime street, just three blocks from the train station and elementary school and an easy stroll to all that makes Pelham amazing.
