Tucked away on a picturesque 1/3-acre wooded lot in the charming community of Sleepy Hollow, this beautifully maintained cottage-style home offers the perfect blend of privacy, character, and convenience. Surrounded by mature oak trees and lush landscaping, you'll enjoy a peaceful, nature-filled setting just minutes from the Randall Rd corridor with easy access to shopping, dining, entertainment, interstate travel, and hospitals. Offering over 3,300 square feet of finished living space, including the finished basement, this spacious home features 3 bedrooms, 2.1 bathrooms and an incredibly versatile floor plan designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Rich wood finishes throughout-including beautiful oak hardwood flooring, solid oak plank doors, and warm wood wall and ceiling paneling-create an inviting cottage feel and showcase the home's exceptional craftsmanship and timeless character. The dramatic two-story living room welcomes you with soaring ceilings, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and an open loft above, creating a warm and inviting focal point of the home. The main level also features a formal dining room, open family room and kitchen with adjoining butler's pantry, convenient powder room, and a main-floor bedroom that is perfect for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. The unique three-season room with a dry bar provides the ideal space for entertaining and offers direct access to the expansive wraparound deck overlooking the beautiful backyard. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a primary suite with an adjoining private room-an ideal flex space for a home office, nursery, reading room, fitness area, or dressing room. The finished basement adds even more living space with endless possibilities for a recreation room, game room, media room, or home gym, while a separate laundry room and dedicated workshop provide exceptional storage and functionality. Whether you're relaxing on the wraparound deck, gathering around the fireplace, or enjoying fresh cherries from your own front yard trees, this home offers a lifestyle that's difficult to find. Combining timeless craftsmanship, flexible living spaces, a beautiful wooded setting, and an unbeatable location, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Sleepy Hollow's most distinctive homes.
