Set on 2.5 tranquil acres of open spaces, lush woods, waterfalls and meandering stone walls, this one-of-a-kind, artfully designed residence offers a seamless connection to nature. Cross a bridge over babbling Sparta Brook to the wrap-around deck, where you can take in the serene beauty of your own secluded retreat. A welcoming entry foyer opens into the dramatic, beamed and vaulted Great Room, centered around a massive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a hand-hewn antique mantle. The space evokes a warm, lodge-like atmosphere, enhanced by richly finished hardwood floors, custom built-ins, and a wall of windows which frame the property’s idyllic surroundings. A chef’s kitchen boasts a center island, along with ample counter and cabinet space. The sunlit dining area is surrounded by windows. Above, a dramatic large circular window enhances the architectural appeal of the space. A cozy den at the back of the home offers floor-to-ceiling windows, hardwood floors, vaulted and beamed ceilings, handcrafted bookcases, a European-style sleeping alcove, and a new full bathroom. The spacious bedroom features a mix of windows, French doors, and skylights, as well as a striking large round window, all of which flood the room with natural light. Elegant wood floors add warmth, and there is direct access to the screened-in porch—the perfect spot for enjoying morning coffee or tea while listening to the brook. A small hallway leads to a luxurious en-suite bath with a soaking tub and separate shower. On either side of the hallway are a walk-in closet and laundry area. A charming detached studio—just steps from the main house—welcomes you with a pergola-topped entrance, a wood deck overlooking a waterfall, and a stone patio with stream views. There are endless possibilities here for a retreat, workspace, or creative haven. Just beyond the studio, a staircase leads to two lower levels of the property. The first features a freeform deck, thoughtfully built around native plants and boulders, with a dramatic view of the larger of the property’s two waterfalls and Sparta Brook as it winds toward the Croton Aqueduct. A second set of steps brings you to a peaceful sitting area beside an ancient stone wall, with direct access to the brook. The driveway affords generous well designed parking areas. Alongside it is a conveniently located shed providing ample storage. The Scarborough Metro-North station is just a mile away, providing a quick, scenic commute to Grand Central Terminal and Midtown. Direct access to the old Croton Aqueduct trails and the Rockefeller trails are minutes away. Make plans to experience this special home in person today.
