Description

Green Woods. An amazing 4,400sf light-filled home, situated on 1.9 acres, with a very large, flat and private yard which offers endless possibilities for a pool, tennis or pickleball court or some sort of structure. Few properties speak to the outdoors and the Hudson River, as this one does. It adjoins Tallman Mountain State Park, a bucolic 540-acre park that runs to the Hudson River, situated between the historic village of Piermont on the north, and the Snedens Landing neighborhood on the south. Green Woods features a large open plan on the first level, with a fabulous layout for entertaining, that's defined by a large fireplace with Jane Herold pottery/tile surround, a built-in wood bin, and sitting alcove. These spaces create a circular flow in the great room and large country kitchen. Three sets of French doors lead to an expansive flagstone patio. The large, open dining area features coffered ceilings and the rest of the open flow offers cathedral ceilings and clerestory window/dormers. The layout offers two primary bedroom suites, one with a private den attached, on each level, and 2-3 additional bedrooms. Two staircases afford privacy. There's also a large observatory like den/family room, with a semi-octagon shape and tented ceiling, overlooking the yard and park. Green Wood is an inspirational, restful space to live, entertain and work or create in. Located on Rockland Road, next to the Rockland Road Bridge Historic District and walkable to shops, restaurants and pier in Piermont and Sparkill, the street features an array of outstanding architecture. Classic examples of Federal, Greek Revival, Italianate, Gothic and Second Empire homes are located on this road. The Hudson River can be seen from the home seasonally, while picturesque sunrises, sunsets and direct visibility to Hook Mountain are prominent. The property and location is something you'll keep coming back to, full-time or part-time. It's a destination. Very special. Nothing compares.
