Property Description

Location, Location, Location! Prepare to fall in love with this 1860's Colonial located in the heart of the Village of Piermont NY. Set overlooking the banks of the gentle Sparkill Creek and just steps from Village restaurants, shops, riverfront paths, harbor & kayak launches, this 3-bedroom Colonial has village life all wrapped up in a charming package! The soft, inviting exterior color scheme was inspired by local River town Victorians. You'll spend many mornings on the rocking chair front porch enjoying the gentle breezes with amazing sunrises and many afternoons gardening in your private back yard and serving iced tea from your covered back porch to your family and friends. The home has been gently renovated with care to preserve its 1800's character. The renovations include new Andersen windows, roof, siding, front and back cedar porches, front stone wall, electrical panel, and Navien tankless hot water & furnace. Not touched by modern times are the gleaming cherry wood floors which bring a warm hue to the comfortable living room and separate 'formal' dining room. A spacious eat-in kitchen forms the center of this wonderfully cozy home and opens to the back porch for easy entertaining. The original center staircase leads upstairs to 3 bedrooms, 2 with original wide plank flooring, and a traditional bath with claw foot tub. The garden's upper level is formed from the old Erie railroad bed and is now a grassy retreat that is part of a 3.8 mile rail-trail. Take advantage of Village life just steps from your front door. Lunch at one of the casual outdoor cafes or enjoy an elegant meal at one of the many in-town restaurants. The Piermont Library at Flywheel Park is the starting point for a mile-long stroll down to the pier from where World War II soldiers once embarked. Outdoor enthusiasts can kayak or SUP at Parelli Park at the Hudson River's entrance near Tallman State Park. In warm weather, take a swim at the Tallman Beach & Pool Club overlooking the Hudson River. Easy commute with convenient NYC transportation leaving directly from the village. Just a 25 minute ride into Manhattan and only 12 miles from the George Washington Bridge. Be one of the lucky few who can get away from it all and start enjoying life on the river.
