Description

This stately home enjoys distinction amidst Riverdale's Northern Estate properties. With over 5000 square feet of beautifully designed architecture, and plentiful access to your 1/3 acre lot, this turn-key-condition home offers a smart design that allows the outside in, and total enjoyment, no matter your fancy. The conservative columned exterior reveals a sumptuous, open floor parlor level with sitting room, lofted salon with fireplace, home office, guest bedroom and formal dining with open granite kitchen. The upstairs level bedrooms are generous, and accentuated with dormer windows, lovely natural light and enjoy a private outdoor space with tranquil views. The master features luxurious en suite bath with skylight, and large walk-in closet. The sprawling finished basement enjoys its current use as a music and art studio, leading easily to the one-car garage, full maisonnette studio apartment and a private second entrance. The backyard is home to several wildflowers and rare birds, with lush grass and two leveled use. The home runs on efficient two-zone gas heat with central air and is kept in immaculate condition. This is a modern, convenient and impressive Riverdale opportunity near all express transit, and is commuter friendly to Manhattan. Schedule a showing today!
