Remarks
Nestled on one of Rye’s most coveted streets, this distinguished Colonial Revival on Kirby Lane captures the timeless beauty & historic charm that define this coastal neighborhood’s 350-year legacy. Once part of a grand Gilded Age estate, the clapboard residence exudes New England character with its graceful roofline, multi-pane windows & octagonal bay crowned by a bell-shaped roof that bathes the interior in natural light. Set on 1.1 private acres near the water’s edge, the home enjoys serene views of Kirby Pond and a tranquil setting surrounded by mature trees and a sweeping front lawn. The arched entry portico and glass paneled French door entry creates a storybook welcome, leading to spaces rich in character. Inside, sun-filled rooms blend timeless detailing with modern flow. The family room w/custom built-ins opens to the kitchen with stainless countertops and a glass-wrapped breakfast room. The dramatic living room, anchored by a marble-surround fpl & expansive windows, overlooks the park-like grounds, while the adjoining dining area glows beneath a statement chandelier & the charming cupola. The 1st floor primary suite features a tray ceiling, rich millwork, oversized windows & a marble-clad ensuite bath. Three add'l bedrooms and a full bath complete the 2nd floor. In a neighborhood once celebrated as a summer haven for New York’s elite, this home presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Rye’s storied past where timeless craftsmanship, architectural distinction, and the serenity of coastal living come beautifully together. An exceptional opportunity to restore, reimagine, or build your dream home on one of Rye’s most storied streets.
