Set on two beautifully landscaped acres, this enchanting post-Civil War farmhouse captures the enduring charm of a bygone era, thoughtfully complemented by modern updates and gracious spaces for everyday living and elegant entertaining. Classic clapboard siding, a welcoming Dutch door with a traditional Williamsburg box lock, and a pea gravel courtyard framed by sheep-hurdle fencing set the tone for this exceptional country retreat.
The formal entry with a powder room opens to a spacious living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, and south-facing bay windows overlooking the expansive lawns and gardens. Two sets of French doors lead to an intimate den, where a second wood-burning fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. French doors open to the bluestone terrace and a charming granny porch, offering effortless indoor-outdoor living amid the tranquil surroundings.
The sun-filled kitchen features an island, five-burner gas range, and convenient access to the laundry room, mudroom, and basement. A separate butler’s pantry, with its own dishwasher, oven, sink, and extensive cabinetry, offers exceptional functionality and flows seamlessly into the grand formal dining room, which comfortably accommodates gatherings of 20 or more. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private retreat with a dressing room and full bath, plus an ensuite guest bedroom and two additional bedrooms with an adjoining full bath, providing comfort and privacy.
Outside, the grounds unfold into a picturesque landscape of English gardens, mature trees, a tranquil pond, and a sweeping bluestone terrace connected by charming walkways. Modern improvements include all-new Andersen windows, a new roof, new central air conditioning, and an 11-zone irrigation system. A salt-box style detached two-car garage completes the property. A distinctive country estate blending historic character, gracious entertaining, and modern convenience, all within the Locust Valley School District.
