A stately Georgian residence of impressive scale and architectural distinction, this beautifully proportioned home pairs classic architecture with exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail, all set on a quiet street in the center of Harrison’s coveted Sterling Ridge neighborhood. With its impressive red-brick facade, black shutters, pedimented dormers and arched windows, the home was gut renovated with extensive new additions in 2011 and features high end finishes and fixtures throughout. Framed by a glade of mature trees, a sweeping circular drive leads to bluestone steps, a columned portico and elegant leaded-glass entry. Inside, a gracious foyer with formal powder room, establishes a striking front-to-back sightline across herringbone hardwood floors. A formal living room with gas fireplace and a banquet-sized dining room with wood-burning fireplace make for effortless entertaining, with the dining room flowing directly into a butler’s pantry with extensive custom cabinetry. The superb chef’s kitchen features the unusual luxury of two generous center islands—one with seating and the other with an integrated prep sink—along with custom Brookhaven cabinetry, marble countertops and professional-grade appliances by Sub-Zero, Wolf and Miele. A light-filled bay-window dining area overlooks the back yard, with easy access to the adjoining screened porch and rear terrace. The expansive and South-facing family room has a wall of custom built-in cabinetry and three sets of transom French doors leading to the bluestone terrace, and overlooking the broad, level lawn, privacy hedges and natural rock outcroppings. The adjoining richly wood-paneled office and library, with custom bookcases, sunny window seat, gas fireplace and private covered porch, enjoys various yard views on three sides and includes a spiral staircase to the second floor. A second powder room, mudroom with custom cubbies and cabinets, pantry, elevator and heated two-car garage with additional rooms with plentiful storage complete the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite encompasses an oversized, sunny, South-facing bedroom with dramatic tray ceiling, changing area, two fitted walk-in closets, fireside sitting room with built-in cabinetry and two window seats, private deck and spa-like marble bath with steam shower, jetted tub and a striking Gothic-inspired arched window. Four ensuite bedrooms, offering generous accommodations with custom storage and beautifully appointed baths. A second-floor laundry adds convenience. The third floor offers an expansive studio, office or bedroom with arched windows, extensive built-in cabinetry, stainless-steel worktop and sink, complemented by a full bath and large adjoining bonus room. Lower level includes a large rec/media room, kitchenette, gym, full bath, laundry, and extensive utility and storage space. Developed in consultation with a green building specialist to maximize energy efficiency, the home features geothermal heating and cooling and cellulose insulation throughout, including the attic rafters. A whole-house generator, sump pump, central vacuum and integrated speakers are among its additional systems. Outside, bluestone terraces and patios overlook the mature backyard with broad, level lawns, and established plantings providing color throughout the seasons. Close to Long Island Sound, the Metro-North station, schools and Harrison’s downtown dining and shopping, with an easy commute to Midtown Manhattan, 26 Archer Road offers substantial space, privacy and elevated living in one of Harrison’s most established neighborhoods – Sterling Ridge!
