"CARABIA SPRING HOUSE" - Hudson River life doesn't get any more peaceful than this enchanting Circa 1903 residence originally built by Horace Ayers, expanded by noted architect Win Perry, with a luxurious renovation in 2021. An included waterfront .06 acre parcel with total taxes around $18K complement the sale. The riverfront parcel features a stone seating area, water access and garage, more suitable for creative inspiration as a river view office, steps to the shoreline... The Dutch style residence flaunts old world charm from a bygone era including wood paneled ceiling & beams, fireplace, custom built-ins, and a vintage coil refrigerator in the pristine basement that use to be fed by the spring, now a unique wine locker. The interior details and natural light captivate you, with unobstructed river views through almost every window pane. The rear of the .87 acre property is just as whimsical: imagine hearing the soothing sound of the natural spring meandering through your rock gardens, hence the name "Carabia Spring," with multiple vantage points to sit and soak in the views of the Mario Cuomo Bridge and Piermont Pier. Whether you choose to relax perched above the property, on the front rocking chair porch, or dining al fresco under the wisteria pergola, the decision is yours. Plus, there is direct access to the Old Erie nature trail and plenty of room for a pool. With tasteful bathrooms, a formal living room that looks like a scene from Architectural Digest, a grand dining room begging to entertain, the open kitchen is the trophy of the home. Culinary amenities include a cocktail bar, Wolf stove & microwave, Sub Zero refrigerator & wine center, granite counters and a farmhouse sink overlooking the patio. With three bedrooms upstairs, one currently setup as a second living room, the 2500 SF house maintains an intimate cozy feel. Situated in Grandview-on-Hudson, 279 River Road is just minutes to the river town villages of Nyack & Piermont with boutique shops, five star dining and the famous Piermont Pier and Tallman Mountain State Park. Award-winning South Orangetown Schools, the ability to flag the NYC bus right from your doorstep, and a quick 25 minute drive to New York City complete this ultimate Hudson Valley package, so you better come soon, or your dream home stays a dream...
