Experience the Property
A Waterfront Sanctuary
Rare waterfront living meets modern comfort in this spectacular 3-story cedar-and-brick contemporary home. Perfectly situated on a 0.34-acre lot directly on the lake, 101 Westchester Avenue offers a private sanctuary designed to maximize spectacular water views from every single room. Whether you are looking for a year-round residence or a peaceful weekend retreat, this property delivers a seamless connection to nature, allowing you to launch a kayak, fish, boat, paddleboard and even ice skate right from your own backyard.
Step inside to an open-concept floor plan wrapped in walls of windows and glass doors that invite natural light and frame unobstructed lake views. The architectural centerpiece is a magnificent stone fireplace that climbs through all three levels of the home, featuring a prominent double-sided hearth on the main living floor and an additional fireplace on the lower level. The main level also features gleaming hardwood floors and an updated eat-in kitchen complete with premium granite countertops and stainless steel appliances.
Spanning 2,500 square feet of versatile living space, the home boasts four bedrooms—including a highly convenient first-floor bedroom—and two full baths, all kept comfortable with central air conditioning. For outdoor entertaining, step out onto the spacious deck, or follow the exterior pathway down to a patio and your own personal dock. Recently, the entire exterior of the home was freshly painted, including both the expansive deck and the private dock, ensuring the property is beautifully updated and completely move-in ready. Complete with a private carport, this property is perfectly situated in the desirable Hendrick Hudson School District, just minutes from parks, local dining, and the Cortlandt Metro-North station for an easy commute.
