Description

Live, work and play in this gorgeous setting comprised of an exquisite main house and a versatile guest house in one of Scarsdale's most prized neighborhoods. Built for Revolutionary War hero, Major William Popham, the gracious 18th century home has been totally refreshed for modern-day living without sacrificing the timeless elegance that has distinguished it for centuries. Throughout the home, splendid period architecture and old-world artistry mix brilliantly with modern enhancements creating a home that is both captivating and immensely comfortable. Extensive improvements undertaken by the current owner offer all the modern luxuries we look for today including a NEW chef's kitchen, NEW designer baths, NEW 6" white oak flooring, NEW windows, insulated siding & a new walkway and porch, 2013-roof. The 4-bedroom, 5.1-bath main house (4,279 sf) enjoys an especially light, airy ambience throughout. Highlights include a grand center hall flanked by formal living and dining rooms, and a cozy library, all with handsome fireplaces. The kitchen is a tour-de-force with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, double copper sink and a large Silestone-topped island. 3 bedrooms with ensuite baths are housed on the second floor including an expansive primary suite complete with fpl, dressing room and spa bath. 1 Bedroom on the third level including a teen lounge, library, full bath. Sauna bath/shower, wine cellar, game room and laundry occupy the lower level. A front porch, terrace accented with a vine-covered pergola and deck offer multiple outdoor areas for entertaining and relaxing. The detached 1716-sf carriage house sits nearby with a 2-car tandem garage, ideal for an office, gym/yoga room. A large entertainment space, bedroom, 2 baths and a great room with balcony are included. The exceptional 1.5-acre property is tucked away at the end of a long drive in the highly walkable neighborhood of Fox Meadow. Magnificent plantings complete with magnificent wisteria vines that beautifully frame the home, enhance the serene setting which is within easy reach of the village center, train station, library, and high school. Though lifestyles have changed over the centuries, the benefits of living well have never gone out of style. And living well is what this extraordinary home is all about. Don't miss this true American classic.
