About This Home
As of February 2026Welcome to "Hawks Nest"- a one-of-a-kind 1936 expanded ranch offering 4,600 sq ft of space, filled with history, character, and modern updates. Originally built by famed aviator Frank Hawks, this unique property offers timeless charm with today's comforts, backing up to a sprawling and serene 2.47 acres. The main level enjoys open concept living which features a spacious living room, kitchen, hardwood floors, sunroom/office and a master suite, while the walk-out lower level boasts 8ft ceilings with an additional office space, guest suite, entertainment room, wet bar, and a covered stone porch. Finished upper level with two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, hardwood floors and a large walk in storage room complete with a cedar closet. Outside, enjoy stone walls, gardens, level land for play and entertaining, plus expansive acreage with a large storage shed. Meticulously maintained with major improvements: new roof and expanded parking (2025), house painted, new fence, porch upgrades, and back windows (2024), and a major remodel with finished third-floor living space and updated bathrooms (2021). Additional updates over the past 1-7 years include boiler, kitchen, central A/C, and front windows. Winter is easier with a heated garage and smart garage doors. Located just minutes from Georgetown shops, restaurants, and Metro North, with easy access to Stamford and NYC. Truly special-must see to appreciate!
