ROSLYN HEIGHTS,NEW YORK
CHARMING COUNTRY CLUB COLONIAL
Nestled
on a secluded third-acre lot in the charming Country Club section of Roslyn Heights, this exceptional Colonial has been extensively renovated, first in 2009 and again in the past three years. It offers an energy-efficient, pristine, and timeless setting perfect for year-round enjoyment. The prime location features tree-lined streets ideal for strolling and biking, with abundant opportunities for indoor and outdoor entertaining.
Conveniently located near major highways and a train station, commuting to Manhattan takes under 45 minutes. The quaint Roslyn business district, with its scenic pond, library, and delightful shops and restaurants, is about two miles away. Nearby, the 98-acre Christopher Morley Park offers golf, ice skating, sports, picnic areas, playgrounds, trails, and a dog park. Further afield, you’ll find golf courses, premier shopping, fine dining, beaches, boating, museums, and more, making it feel like a vacation all year round.
The home features a lovely street presence with flowering trees, a wide driveway, and a charming paving stone walkway and patio. The elegant front entry, with its stunning double doors and soaring Palladian-style window, sets the tone for the interior. The fully fenced yard, surrounded by mature trees and shrubbery, includes an expansive paving stone patio, with ample space for a potential pool or sports court.
Inside, the center hall foyer welcomes you with a guest closet, striking powder room, and chic new fielded paneling extending to the second floor. Gleaming hardwood floors, crown molding, and wainscot flow into a sunny sitting area with a corner brick fireplace and a spacious dining area. The gourmet kitchen features terra cotta floors and backsplash, extensive maple cabinetry, a raised paneled ceiling with a gigantic arched window, a built-in glass cooktop with stainless steel hood, and a center island with seating. A two-story breakfast area with French doors opens to the rear patio, illuminated by a soaring arched window and skylight.
The versatile living room, currently used as a media room, offers ample space for gatherings. A hall leads to a guest suite with two exposures, a closet, and a private full bath. On the opposite side of the kitchen, a hallway connects to the two-car garage and a multi-use room with French doors to the rear patio, currently used as a playroom but also suitable as a bedroom. This hall also includes a laundry/mud room with a sink, and doors to the powder room and rear patio.
