Overview
Now on-the-market after 55+ years with the same family, the restoration of this 1916 grand Colonial has begun and offers the next homeowner a wonderful opportunity to further enhance and put their stamp on this unique and spacious home located in the highly sought-after Webber Park neighborhood of historic Sleepy Hollow (formerly North Tarrytown). The property is sited high and offers Hudson River/Palisades views from most rooms, and is located on one of the quiet dead-end tree streets with direct access to the Old Croton Aqueduct (OCA) Trail, which seamlessly flows into the Rockefeller State Park Preserve where you can enjoy horseback riding, jogging, birdwatching, fishing, dog walking, and much more. Inside the home you will find a grand foyer, period details, high ceilings, tall windows, refinished hardwood floors throughout, plus a wood-burning fireplace. The interior space is spread over four levels allowing for designated quiet spaces, ideal for those working from home or otherwise needing privacy/separation - and, with a no-step side entrance off of the driveway into the lower-level, which includes a large bedroom and a renovated full bath, the home can also work well for multi-generational living (the home was formerly a legal two-family residence). In the rear corner of the lot, you will find a one-of-a-kind large two-story (+ attic space) detached concrete garage, originally used for hay baling... this unique/bonus structure offers limitless possibilities for one to benefit from/meet your needs! Enjoy the neighborhood park and playground, Douglas Park, a scenic walk to the Philipse Manor train station (39-minute express trains from Grand Central), and many other attractions/amenities from this homestead. While the major exterior components have recently been addressed e.g., siding & windows a few years old, roof 13 years young, etc. protecting your investment, the home is waiting for its new owner who appreciates the full potential and continues to restore the interior to its former glory. Settle here soon to begin the next chapter in your journey of life and learn for yourself what makes Sleepy Hollow legendary, and before you know it, you too will be part of/immersed in Washington Irving’s storybook setting. Stated taxes are before the STAR savings of $1, 591.
