Description
Pure poetry! This 1940's home has the best of all worlds as it blends traditional cottage style with a mid century modern vibe for a perfect balance of solitude, comfort and style. Most noticeably it features grand picture windows in every room that encapsulate Hudson River vistas from room to room, and season to season throughout the year. Three bedrooms are large with ample closets. The primary is a shrine to nature and light with cathedral ceilings, skylights, a viewing deck and two epic picture windows that seamlessly weave together indoor and outdoor spaces. All the interior spaces are simple yet cozy with two traditional fireplaces, one in the living room on the main level with another spectacular picture window and a breathtaking view of the Hudson that continues across the house to the kitchen and dining room. There are five doors to the outside from three levels of living. Grounded into the bedrock of the palisades , this property has been tamed with a proper level lawn and dotted with stone walkways and intimate garden patios for viewing the beauty and grandeur of the natural landscape. From its high perch, bird watching is superb, frequently spotting eagles, hawks and herons. Specimen trees including cherries, dogwood and maples fill the year with fragrance and color. Enjoy a large gravel driveway for convenient access to the property making it fit for everyday modern living- but most important this home is a salve for the romantic soul in all of us!
