Spectacular Georgian Colonial
Estate
Pelham Manor, NY
Price Upon Request
A gated entrance and sweeping driveway provide an idyllic welcome
to this magnificent Georgian Colonial estate, situated on two and
one-half acres in prestigious Pelham Manor. The 9,600-square-foot
interior offers spacious rooms and an open floor plan perfectly
suited for elegant entertaining as well as informal gatherings.
Much of the priceless and irreplaceable detailing and appointments
were preserved from a mansion which previously occupied the estate,
including the intricately carved Reception Hall of solid chestnut
wood and the delicate decorative plaster work in the Dining Room.
Eight fireplaces warm all of the major rooms, as well as four of
the six family bedrooms; and each bedroom features its own private
bath. The fabulous Master Suite is a wing unto itself, and offers
his and hers dressing rooms and bathrooms, as well as a private
exercise room/bedroom.
A
separate Guest House with two-bedroom apartment is ideal for staff,
and a cavernous garage offers abundant storage space for automobile
collectors. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, and feature
park-like fountains and an inground pool with whirlpool. This extraordinary
estate is located just 30 minutes north of Manhattan via Metro-North
train service, and offers convenient access to the Hutchinson River
Parkway, I-95 and the Boston Post Road/Route 1.
