Property Description

Welcome home to this classic turn-of-the-century Cape Cod, beautifully refreshed and ready for your personal touch! A charm-filled front porch portico welcomes you inside, where you’ll find freshly refinished hardwood floors, some updated windows, and a bright dining area featuring a new sliding glass door that opens directly to the deck and backyard and take in the evening sky.
Bring your vision to build your dream chef’s kitchen, perfectly positioned to take in views of the enclosed porch and sprawling grounds. Beyond a standard yard, this property offers a total of just over 14 serene, private acres—ideal for creating an incredible private homestead or investors / builders can explore future expansion potential or even sub-diving.
Key updates provide complete peace of mind: a new roof installed in October 2025, plus a newly repointed fireplace with a fresh chimney liner. The clean, dry basement offers great space (and all new windows ) for storage or a home gym, while the detached two-car garage easily doubles as a workshop or extra storage.
Located in the desirable Hendrick Hudson School District, moments from Hudson Valley Hospital Center (HVHC), major commuter roadways, and local shopping. Endless possibilities await—schedule your tour today!
