Scarsdale, NY 10583

Rich in architectural detail and timeless sophistication, this exceptional eight-bedroom Colonial estate, set on 2.13 spectacular park-like acres in Scarsdale’s coveted Heathcote/Murray Hill enclave, was thoughtfully renovated and updated in 1995 by Oliver Cope Architects. The property is complete with a meticulously maintained Har-Tru tennis court featuring classic wood posts and netted fencing while surrounding gardens and grounds were beautifully designed by British landscape architect Peter Cummin. A classic French door entrance opens to a gracious vestibule, leading into a welcoming foyer framed by striking archways and refined millwork. The oversized, formal living room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and bay window, opens through French doors to a screened-in porch overlooking the sweeping property. A large, formal dining room with French doors to the side grounds is ideal for elegant entertaining. The chef’s kitchen features a Traulsen glass refrigerator/freezer, six-burner Russel range with Viking hood, two Miele dishwashers, abundant custom cabinetry and drawers, a skylight, beam ceiling and an impressive large stone-topped island. A sunlit breakfast room with French doors to the bluestone patio enhances informal everyday living. A warm pine study/family room with fireplace, beam ceiling and bay window completes the main gathering spaces. Finishing the first floor is a dedicated laundry room with half bath, mudroom and convenient side entrance. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a sitting room with fireplace, terrace overlooking the property, large custom walk-in closet, spa bath with steam shower, dual vanities, soaking tub and private water closet. Additional bedrooms include one en-suite, two sharing a hall bath, and two bedrooms with a hall bathroom off the back staircase. The third floor provides two large bedrooms, a hall bath, walk-in attic/storage space and cedar closets. The tiled lower level features a recreation room with fireplace, full bath, mechanicals, and outdoor access. A full-house generator services the home. Offering complete privacy, this is a rare, timeless property defined by architectural integrity, exceptional scale and unrivaled setting. Close to Scarsdale High School, the fabulous freshly renovated Public Library, downtown shopping and dining, and the Metro-North train station, all minutes from this extraordinary estate.
