About This Home
As of December 2024Watch the sunrise above the entire northeast Bronx from your manor house perched atop Spuyten Duyvil hill. This handsome, historic gem features the character and elegance of a bygone era. Designed by noted architect Robert Waterman Gardner, a student of Calvert Vaux and an archaeologist, your new home’s architectural details and traditional center-hall colonial elements combine for a uniquely generous living space.
Step into grandeur with gracious entertaining spaces including a large entry foyer flanked by generously-sized living room with fireplace and a dining room with quality terra cotta tile floor, oversized windows, and built-in corner cabinets. Classic French doors open to the brick porch, with its stone walls and pillars, leading to gardens and a play area.
The remodeled eat-in kitchen with maple cabinetry and stunning granite counters is perfect for event preparation, and quiet conversations over a cup of tea.
Upstairs, a master BR suite offers distant city views, a private bathroom, walk-in closet, and French doors opening to a masonry deck. The adjacent bedroom is perfect for a nursery or office. Two additional bedrooms on this level feature oversized windows and garden and/or city views. The third level hosts three additional bedrooms, one very large with windows facing three directions and two half that size each, and a bathroom with shower off the center hall, benefitting from the stunning eastern vista.
One of the earlier residences in Spuyten Duyvil, this location is among the most prominent elevations in NYC. Awesome views east. Cool breezes come from the Hudson River one half mile to the west. Your new driveway and garage, with on-site parking for several cars, is a rarity in NYC! Commuter links within a five minute walk include Manhattan Express busses, the number 10 bus, and the Rail Link bus to the Spuyten Duyvil Metro North station.
This homesite combines urban convenience and suburban tranquility within a quiet, historic neighborhood. The house is so unique, it has had only three owners since 1910. Schedule your private tour today to experience the timeless elegance of this unique offering. Additional Information: ParkingFeatures:1 Car Detached,
