A home to treasure in Sleepy Hollow. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street, this classic Colonial offers the perfect blend of charm, space, and location. Situated in the heart of Philipse Manor, the home enjoys easy access to the train station, beach, boat club, and scenic neighborhood parks. A spacious covered front porch welcomes you with timeless appeal—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, rich architectural details and thoughtful updates enhance the home's warmth and character. The expansive first floor features high ceilings and tall windows that flood the space with natural light. The formal living room showcases two fireplaces, custom built-in bookcases, and a cozy window seat—a perfect nook for reading or relaxing. The formal dining room is equally charming, complete with a decorative fireplace and a beamed ceiling. The sun-filled, eat-in chef’s kitchen—renovated in 2018—is a true showpiece, equipped with Sub-Zero, Bosch, and Wolf stainless steel appliances. A granite center island, gas-burning fireplace, adjacent butler’s pantry with copper sink and wine fridge, and doors open to the breakfast porch and large patio with a full outdoor kitchen make this space ideal for everyday living and large-scale entertaining. Upstairs, the second floor features three generous bedrooms, including a sprawling primary suite with a full bath and an adjoining office or dressing room. A full laundry room adds convenience on this level. The third floor offers even more flexibility, with three additional bedrooms and a spacious bonus family room—perfect for guests, work, or play. Sleepy Hollow, in the heart of Rockefeller Country, enjoys acres and acres of green space including woods and trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding, even fishing! On the banks of Hudson River, where golden sunsets belong to all.
