Rich in character and timeless charm, this impressive 3,183 sq ft, five bedroom 1918 French Colonial combines magnificent curb appeal, beautiful original details, and graciously proportioned rooms in a coveted, convenient neighborhood just over a mile from Pelham Village, its shops, restaurants, and train. High ceilings, a grand foyer, and an inviting sunroom set the tone for a home that exudes warmth and enduring appeal. The stately first floor features an elegant living room with a wood-burning fireplace and window seat, an extraordinary sunroom framed by wall-to-wall windows, and a large formal dining room crowned by a contemporary chandelier. A butler’s pantry with extensive built-ins adds both character and functionality, while the updated kitchen overlooks the lush, level backyard, creating a lovely connection between indoor and outdoor living. Upstairs, five bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or a home office, with multiple windows and deep closets throughout; the primary bedroom features an ensuite bath and dual closets. An incredible walk-out basement adds 1,145 sq ft of bonus space, including a recreation room, an additional guest room, a full bath, and a laundry room. Thoughtful improvements include a new roof (2024), new gutters (2024), a new front door, Marvin-clad windows throughout the first floor, a new terrace door, replacement windows throughout the second floor, new attic and stairway windows, a new stainless steel refrigerator, (2026), the entire exterior freshly painted (2025), and replacement of all galvanized pipes with copper (2005). Ideally located in a quiet, sought-after neighborhood near the Daniel Webster Magnet School, New Rochelle High School, Glenwood Lake, Nature Study Woods, parks, and trails, the home is also just over a mile from both the Pelham and New Rochelle train stations, offering a wonderful blend of classic architectural character, versatile living space, and everyday convenience.
