Time trip to live in this French country of country style that once was the study of sculptures for the artist Nueces Elie Nadelman, whose work is in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, for $ 2.7 million.
Bronx’s house in 4 Alderbrook Road comes with a stream, mature fruit trees, roses, a stone patio and a walled stone terrace while sharing a pool with eight other houses on a private road.
It gives the illusion of living north of the state. But everything is a third of an acre in Riverdale, just 10 miles from the center of Manhattan, and has only had a few owners in almost a century.
“We are only the second owners since 1937,” said seller Reynold Levy, former president of Lincoln Center and the Robin Hood Foundation, and former Executive Director of the 92 Street and, among other organizations, who has owned the house for the last 32 years.
The brick house has 3,601 square feet and comes with seven bedrooms and three bathrooms.
It has a slate roof, wide oak floors, built -in shelves, moldings, original solid oak doors and two wood chimneys.
It is in the Riverdale states section, “which is one of the quietest and most beautiful parts of the city,” said Levy.
It is also a magnet for bird observers and is a “popular stop for the Audubon Society,” according to the list.
The first floor of the house has a living room with wooden panels, a garden -oriented dining room and a chef kitchen with cabinets with original glass panels, along with a dining porch locked up.
The suite of the main room illuminated by the sun, on the second floor, has windows in three exhibitions and many cabinets. There is also a high currency space on the garage that could function as an study, an office, a game room or a guest suite, while the basement level has a separate entrance.
The listing corridor is Jed Lewin of the New York agency.
