space, privacy and a charming village close by. with nearly 3,000 square feet, plus an 1,100 sf finished lower level, this substantial house in the historic hamlet of tappan offers the kind of breathing room that can make leaving the city feel like a very good idea. set on a generous corner property at the entrance to a cul-de-sac, there is room to spread out, both inside and out.
at its heart is an open kitchen, dining and family room—an easy, expansive space for everyday living and entertaining. generously proportioned rooms continue throughout the house, while the finished lower level adds considerable additional space and flexibility for a home office, gym, media room, studio, recreation or guests.
outside, a private backyard is framed by mature landscaping, with a deck overlooking the garden and a koi pond that gives the setting a peaceful quality. there is room to entertain, garden, play or simply enjoy having a piece of the outdoors to yourself. and while the property offers plenty of privacy, it doesn′t feel removed from things.
tappan′s historic downtown, with restaurants, shops and its handsome library, is close by, while the hudson river villages of piermont and nyack are just a short drive away. located in the town of orangetown and the south orangetown central school district, this is a house that delivers on one of the great promises of a move from the city: more space, more privacy and more room for life to unfold.
