Property Description

This 1920s gem, majestically placed on a peaceful .66-acre corner property in prized Riverview Manor, is right on the Dobbs Ferry/Hastings border, offering your choice of either award-winning school district. High above and bordering the Croton Aqueduct Trail you’ll discover this expanded 3000 SF, 5 bedroom Tudor with sunny exposures and winter river views! The home is distinguished by solid brick construction, restored leaded glass windows, and stunning grounds allowing multiple opportunities for both gracious family living and large-scale entertaining. An arched entry door leads one through a light-filled foyer to an extraordinary living room featuring an original wood-burning fireplace with ornate limestone mantel and a wide bank of western-facing steel windows for viewing vibrant sunsets over the Hudson. Built-in display shelving figures prominently on the room’s south wall, pierced by a pair of French doors to a private stone patio and lovely side yard beyond. On the north end, a spacious family room addition with gabled ceiling and brick accent wall provides French door access to a huge stone terrace offering seasonal glimpses of the Hudson. The terrace is accessible from the formal dining room, as well, so meals can easily be enjoyed overlooking the gently rolling lawn and its tree canopy above. Eastern light pervades a renovated kitchen with stainless appliances and quartz counters. A versatile first level room with adjoining bath is perfect for office or au pair. Upstairs, a remodeled primary offers two expansive walk-in closets and windows facing south and west, allowing stunning seasonal river views. Its ensuite bath includes dual sinks, step-in shower, and an abundance of custom built-in storage. Enjoy three additional cheerful bedrooms, each having two exposures, extra deep closets, and hardwood floors, with a large renovated hall bath to share. A lower level, with obvious potential for walk-out, provides ample room for laundry, exercise, and storage, with a convenient two-car garage attached. Ideally located between the charming villages of Hastings and Dobbs Ferry, both reachable by the Aqueduct trail just steps away, the property is nestled between a picturesque neighborhood pool at Southlawn’s north end, community gardens and Zinsser Park to the south, and a mere 40-minute train to GCT. This is a home to truly cherish! Additional Information: Amenities:Storage,ParkingFeatures:2 Car Attached,
