Cedarhurst, a nineteenth century Second Empire Victorian on three acres with perennial gardens, sundrenched lawn and forest views. Meticulously restored over a twenty year period, the current owners/designers impressed their Dutch and Japanese sensibilities onto the project to create a simple, elegant home. Substantial in its proportions, you'll find high ceilings, large windows and the original wood flooring throughout. Enter through the original french doors to find large rooms on either side of a wide entryway, and a beautiful staircase with its original balustrade. French doors lead from the living room onto a screened in porch where one can take in the beautiful property. The back section of the home is an early addition housing the kitchen with a woodburning stove, exposed beams & doors leading out to a patio. A back stairwell takes you up to a bedroom which the current owners use as an art studio. Beautifully made, wooden eyebrow windows line the space. There are three additional bedrooms surrounding the front staircase, each large and light filled with plenty of storage. The baths, just like the rest of the house, are simple & beautiful, designed by Philippe Stark. There is a deep soaking tub and stucco lined showers, wall hung sinks and top of the line nickel hardware. A staircase takes you up to the third floor, perched in the mansard roof, which the owners dreamed of turning into an art studio. But that project is left for the next steward, should one desire more living space. Outside you'll find an insulated and heated studio/two bay garage & carport with a standing seam metal roof and solar. The main house retains its iconic slate roof. Everything at Cedarhurst was completed with the utmost attention to detail, truly no corners cut during the decades long restoration of this prominent home. Just 1.5h from NYC and 20m to Metro North.
