Welcome to 26 Century Ridge Road, a charming and expansive split-level home with classic Colonial character, ideally situated on a quiet dead-end street in the heart of Purchase, set on approximately one beautifully landscaped acre. Originally built in 1958 and extensively rebuilt in 2001, this special property blends warmth, character, flexibility, and exceptional outdoor living in a setting that is increasingly difficult to find.
The home features 4 bedrooms and 4.5 baths thoughtfully arranged across multiple levels, creating a layout that offers both openness and privacy. Two en-suite bedrooms are located one split level from the main, while two more spacious bedrooms and a large bathroom are one level above.
At the center of the home are inviting gathering spaces including a welcoming living room with fireplace, formal dining room, and a bright kitchen that opens to the family room and rear deck. One split level down, a substantial home office and additional flexible spaces offer endless possibilities for work, fitness, hobbies, or storage. Another level below, the enormous recreation room, remodeled in 2015, features a second fireplace, summer kitchen, wet bar, and direct access to the rear patio, creating the perfect setting for entertaining, extended guests, or flexible living needs.
An inviting breezeway connects the home to the attached garage, providing both convenience and architectural charm while offering seamless access to the home's front and rear outdoor spaces.
Outside, the setting is truly exceptional. The 36' x 17' in-ground pool, installed in 2018, is surrounded by elegant stone patios, expansive level lawn areas, and magnificent mature landscaping featuring flowering cherry blossom trees and beautiful specimen plantings that create exceptional privacy and seasonal beauty. Unlike many properties, the grounds offer substantial usable space both in front of and behind the home, creating a true estate-like feel. Multiple outdoor living spaces make the property feel like a private retreat—from the inviting front porch, perfect for morning coffee and peaceful views, to the elevated deck overlooking the pool and manicured grounds, along with the spacious patio below designed for entertaining and summer enjoyment.
Additional improvements include three updated condensers installed within recent years, along with abundant storage throughout the home to accommodate a variety of lifestyle needs.
Located in one of Purchase's most desirable residential neighborhoods, the property offers an exceptional balance of privacy and convenience. Enjoy proximity to Anderson Hill Road, Purchase Street, area colleges, premier golf courses, country clubs, and parks, while downtown White Plains—with its renowned dining, shopping, entertainment, and Metro-North service—is just minutes away. I-287, the Hutchinson River Parkway, I-684, and Westchester County Airport are all easily accessible.
Surrounded by prestigious homes and set on a rare, level acre with outstanding outdoor living, 26 Century Ridge Road presents a unique opportunity to enjoy timeless charm, expansive living space, and a private retreat-like setting in one of Westchester's premier communities.
