Remarks
Handsome brick Georgian Colonial set on three and half acres in Irvington's much sought-after Matthiessen Park. Adjacent to the Croton Aqueduct, the property is private, pastoral and simply stunning. Designed by Dupont architect James M. Scheiner in 1929 for the Barry family, the house is authentic and pure. High ceilings frame large public rooms-all with a view towards the Hudson River. Comprising over 9,000 square feet on three floors, the home has seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms and four fireplaces. Wonderful original details include the original oak paneled library, brick sun room, and slate roof. Terraced gardens and paths lead to a stream and spring-fed skating and fishing pond. The living room, dining room and kitchen all face west and open out onto a stone and grass terrace overlooking a shimmering 50-foot swimming pool. Much loved and beautifully maintained by the owners for over 40 years, the offering presents a unique opportunity for the buyer seeking a generational property within walking distance of a vibrant town and train.
