About this home

Easy lifestyle and one-floor living in this pristine home on .8 acre just steps from Tower Road beach. Open, flexible spaces and incredible outdoor views throughout. Nestled amongst mature landscaping in a park-like setting, this solidly built and renovated 5 BD/5.1 BA stone ranch with attached 2 car garage offers exceptional open floor plan in a tranquil setting. Soaring ceilings and an abundance of natural light fills the expansive family room and features a fireplace and sweeping views of the lush backyard, bluestone terraces and pool. Adjacent to the family room is the kitchen, breakfast room and mudroom. Separate office/library with bar gives room to spread out and offers great flexible space. Generous-sized primary suite with walk-in closet and spa-like bath plus 3 additional en-suite bedrooms and laundry complete the bedroom wing. A 5th bedroom and bath at the opposite end of the house is great for guests or live-in. A finished lower level with lofty ceilings offers great rec space plus utility room, ample storage, a 2nd laundry and full bath. A truly special oasis and property in a highly desirable walk-to beach, lake, town and train location!

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.
