Iconic 1849 Piermont Riverfront Home — Sweeping Hudson & Mario Cuomo Bridge Views
Rare opportunity to own one of Piermont’s most iconic homes, built in 1849. This magnificent three-story residence sits on .27 acres of landscaped grounds and offers open Hudson River and panoramic Marion Cuomo Bridge views. The home features five spacious bedrooms and two full and two half bathrooms (one half-bath currently used as a laundry room on the second floor), plus two dedicated offices, one of which on the third floor could make a fantastic exercise room as well. The large primary suite on the third floor includes an enormous walk-in closet, an expansive bathroom with ca claw-foot tub, stall shower, and separate windowed lavatory room. This floor provides access to a roof deck with unobstructed river and bridge views—perfect for watching July 4th fireworks. Classic period details of the home are abound, including columns, French doors, crown moldings, wide-plank hardwood floors, and a large wood-burning fireplace, while abundant windows provide multiple exposures and fill the home with light. The updated eat-in kitchen offers radiant floor heat, skylights, stainless steel appliances, a professional-grade range and hood, a large cast-iron double sink, wine refrigerator, and an informal dining area with direct access to a spacious back patio ideal for entertaining, and summer dinners. The stunning front sitting/living room has french doors leading out to the porch that runs the entire with of the home. The opposite side of the sitting/living room on the first floor, separated by and enormous walk through closet, is used as a family room, and features a beautiful wood-burning fireplace. Behind the kitchen is a lovely large stone patio, that served for countless celebrations and parties in the past. Steps to the upper edge of the property lead to a separate two-story building by Stevenson Street that is approximately 800 sq ft, and can serve many functions. Its bottom part provides for ample of storage for garden equipments and more, while the upper level outfitted with a bathroom has been used as a studio/recreation room/office, to only name a few, with seasonal river views. The main home’s dry basement houses the mechanicals, including an owned water softener and a second refrigerator, and leads to a large two-car garage with an automatic door and driveway parking for two additional cars. The home enjoys sizable reduction on electric costs due to owned solar panels on the roof.
