99 Estherwood Avenue, Dobbs Ferry, NY 10522

Property Description

On a quiet cul-de-sac street with residences on one side and woodlands on the other, let your imagination soar at #99! This versatile 2200 SF 1950's home with bonus 1100 SF ancillary building features an artist's studio, that can potentially convert to an in-law apt or rentable residential unit. Its .25 acre property and clever layout offer unique flexibility for all manner of living, working, and recreation, with an unexpected surprise around every corner. A warm and inviting living room greets you at the entry level, featuring hardwood floors, wood-burning fireplace, and wide picture window overlooking a lovely front lawn and trees beyond. Morning light streams into the eat-in kitchen, where a wonderful and expansive covered porch allows 3-season al fresco dining. Completing this floor are two sizeable corner bedrooms, with a third bedroom which can creatively transform the adjacent kitchen by removing their shared wall. One level down, an enormous family room anchors the home, open to an equally-large, light-filled crafts room with cabinets, plumbing, and broad eastern views. This spacious story also includes a generous media room at one end and two private corner offices and full bath at the other, allowing for tons of useful guest possibilities. As if this weren't enough, walk out onto a vast 550 SF Ipe entertaining deck with stairs down to rear yard. At the far end of the deck, through sliding glass doors, the glorious artist's studio/loft space awaits, with gabled ceiling, wood tie beams, skylights, wet bar, and powder room. Use the 525 SF heated storage room below, or restore to its former 2-car garage (vehicular access from Walgrove). Abundant solar panels installed 5 years ago provide valuable credits on the electric bill. Downtown shopping, village park/pool, Aqueduct Trail, and two award-winning schools are all just a half-mile away, with a green pathway at the end of the street to Hillside Woods - what more can you ask for? This delightful home, only 40 minutes from GC, is sure to capture your imagination and your heart.
