Discover Sleepy Hollow Manor Real Estate: A Blend of History and Modernity

Welcome to Sleepy Hollow Manor

If any legends are true here, it’s how the past of this charming commuter-friendly community blends so effortlessly with its present. Immortalized in Washington Irving’s classic tale, this Westchester river town—a village of Mount Pleasant, to be technical—was called North Tarrytown through 1996, when residents voted to reclaim its historic place name. While you won’t cross paths with a headless horseman stalking its foggy, lantern-lit streets, you’ll certainly stumble upon welcoming neighborhood haunts pouring local craft beer, along with miles of trails, an 17th-century Dutch church, and a stout coffee pot-looking lighthouse. The revitalized riverfront boasts a slew of sleek modern apartments, contrasting classic Colonials and mansard-roofed Second Empires on leafy lanes. Metro-North’s Hudson Line stops right at Philipse Manor, which surrounds the stately neighborhood of the same name.

A picturesque neighborhood known for its historic significance, lush greenery, and proximity to the legendary Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, providing residents with a tranquil setting steeped in folklore.

Originally incorporated as North Tarrytown in the late 19th century, the village adopted its current name in 1996. The village is known internationally through "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow", an 1820 short story about the local area and its infamous specter, the Headless Horseman, written by Washington Irving, who lived in Tarrytown and is buried in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. Owing to this story, as well as the village's roots in early American history and folklore, Sleepy Hollow is considered by some to be one of the "most haunted places in the world". Despite this designation, Sleepy Hollow has also been called "the safest small 'city' [i.e., under 100,000 residents] in America".

The village is home to the Philipsburg Manor House and the Old Dutch Church of Sleepy Hollow, as well as the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, where in addition to Irving, numerous other notable people are buried.
