Description

Three Gables. A turnkey circa 1930 home, situated in storied Snedens Landing, a historic district, with no thru traffic, that feels like the country, but is only 25 minutes to NYC! Snedens consists of only about 100 homes, dating back to late 1600s and adjoins approximately 3,000 acres of parkland, where one can walk or hike for miles. It's also a short walk to the Hudson River, down Washington Spring Rd, a major thoroughfare during the Revolutionary War. Three Gables is a beautifully renovated and dramatic, 1930s home, with many windows that provide lots of light all day. Feels like an English Country home. It was recreated by its two designers/owners, and features an abundance of subtle, yet highly stylized applications - hand painted walls, subtle wallpaper, complimentary paint palate, custom ironwork, noteworthy lighting, and bold architectural features inside and out. The home features an asymmetrical exterior with three bays or sections that move forward, from south to north. Its many geometric shapes include triangular shaped gables, rectangles blocks, and semi-circles, both inside and out. In addition to period moldings, panel doors, coffered and vaulted ceilings, it features dramatic, custom designed metal work, custom lighting, airy, open stairwells, many French doors, and a large porch in rear off the dining room and kitchen. A massive fireplace with native brownstone is the focal point in the house, with original mahogany woodwork surround. The home also offers a lot of wall space for artwork. Another focal point is the very large kitchen. It has an old world country like European feel, with floor to ceiling, knotty pine cabinetry, with many glass front cabinets and two entry doors, to the back and side yard off driveway. In addition, there is lots of storage space, honed marble counters and top of the line brand appliances. The home is full of nooks and crannies and the beauty is that it's turnkey!! All bathrooms are classic marble or limestone. Third floor features an unfinished attic with windows that offer many options. The lower level offers a large laundry room with great workspace and additional storage. All mechanicals replaced recently. Includes generator too. The two-car garage and 2nd floor studio space, approx. 500sf, was added in 2015, ideal for home office. Nothing Compares to Three Gables!
