Located in sought after Riverview Manor, this generous 4-BR clapboard Colonial on its peaceful, park-like property - a mere stone's throw from the beloved Aqueduct Trail - sits just 2 blocks from the delight that is downtown Dobbs Ferry! Its beautifully landscaped .50 acres and the adjacent vibrant village amenities makes the location truly enchanting.
The home is designed so its large level lawns, mature flowering perennial shrubs, and tiered planting areas with stone retaining walls can all be enjoyed from inside as well as out. An expansive living room with built-in bookshelves and wood-burning fireplace affords views of the expansive side yard and fiery summer sunsets.
Through French doors, the room extends into a heated sunroom, where wall-to-wall windows showcase gorgeous yearlong greenery. Its bluestone floor and exterior door allow for easy access to fun indoor-outdoor entertainment. Glorious backyard vistas are also framed in a formal dining room via a prominent picture bay window.
The hardwood floors found throughout the home also extend into a spacious eat-in kitchen with granite counters, stainless appliances, and plenty of storage. Another wonderful window bay provides further landscape enjoyment while working at the sink. Access a covered stone breezeway to a detached 2-car garage with ample attic storage above or a private stone dining patio for gracious garden meals.
As a bonus, a large family room off the main entrance offers options for home office or guest bedroom, with the home's 3rd full bath nearby. Upstairs, find a luxurious primary suite where year-round views of the Hudson River by day and radiant sunsets by night are always a treat.
It includes an ensuite bath and an adjoining study/office, sparkling under a skylight, with tranquil views onto the backyard. Three additional generously proportioned bedrooms and bath complete this level, all with deep closets and pleasant views. An unfinished walk-out basement contains laundry, storage space, and possibility.
Leave your cars in the garage to hike the Aqueduct, enjoy the fields at Memorial and Waterfront Parks, or use the track at the Masters School, each an easy stroll away. With close proximity to award-winning public schools and a 40-minute train to GCT, this heavenly haven promises to provide the perfect Rivertown retreat.
