Tucked away on a winding country lane just 15 minutes from the George Washington Bridge, this enchanting circa 1859 home is a rare blend of historic charm, character, and natural beauty. A true horticulturist’s delight, the property spans over an acre and is surrounded by mature plantings, stone walls, and wooded views, backing to state parkland. Inside, the home welcomes you with wide plank pine floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and an abundance of charming nooks and crannies. Upstairs are two primary bedroom suites, one of which features an additional room ideal for a home office, nursery, or den. A powder room on the lower level adds convenience for guests. The layout is equally suited for everyday comfort or weekend entertaining, with a covered front porch perfect for morning coffee and a back patio ideal for evening gatherings. A detached garage and gravel driveway enhance the home’s classic country appeal. Perfectly located for both nature lovers and city commuters, you're just a short stroll from the beloved Palisades Library and minutes from Tallman State Park’s scenic trails. Enjoy weekends kayaking or dining along the Hudson in the vibrant village of Piermont, only five minutes away, or explore the up-and-coming hamlet of Sparkill, home to four award-winning restaurants and a growing, creative community.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
