This stunning, recently renovated 1930's all-brick classic colonial is nestled on over an acre on the idyllic and private De Windt Road. A whimsical modern makeover transforms this home and takes it to the next level while still honoring its original character. Gracious room sizes, a thoughtful and functional layout that begs for entertaining, and light-filled rooms with pops of color, make this home a one-of-a-kind showstopper. The grand two-story foyer welcomes guests and foreshadows the style and charm to follow in the rest of the home. The spacious and bright living room offers views from all windows of the expansive grounds and flows onto the quaint screened-in porch. Relax in the cozy family room with vibrant wall coverings and adorned with custom millwork and built-ins. The formal dining room seamlessly flows into the newly renovated kitchen with marble countertops, custom powder blue cabinetry, Bertazzoni range with mixed metal hood, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. The newly created cheerful mudroom has a built-in bench and cubbies, provides access to the two-car attached garage, and includes a well-appointed butler pantry with a wet bar and beverage cooler. The gorgeous center staircase leads you to the second floor where a primary suite was masterfully redesigned to include a new en suite marble bath and exquisitely crafted custom dressing room. There are four additional family bedrooms and two full baths, as well as conveniently located second-floor laundry. The spacious basement offers an additional family room and rec space, another half bath, and ample storage. The extensive one-acre plus yard has been thoughtfully landscaped and is a blank canvas for your dream outdoor space. Private and prime location, close to town, train, and schools, this is a rare opportunity you don't want to miss!

Single-Family Residential District
The requirements set forth in this chapter, together with other provisions set forth in the Building Code of the Village, have been adopted in order to provide for a single-family residential environment of relatively small estate character, where the degree of improvements upon an individual parcel of land is generally subordinate to the landscape. Due to the mature character of development within this district, such requirements are also intended to assure that future modifications to existing structures, or the replacement of existing structures with new structures, will not alter the scale and general character of established neighborhoods. In this regard, the requirements set forth in this chapter are further intended to foster development which is compatible, in general, with the character of existing single-family development within the immediate neighborhood with respect to external architectural scale, landscaping and other site improvements.
