Spectacular Views! A jewel crowning College Hill, peacefully sitting at the edge of Chestnut Ridge overlooking the Delaware River this circa 1900 Colonial Revival beauty maintains a graceful stature in the community of the residential Historic District. Originally a grand single family home it was respectfully converted to multiple units around 1960, the property retains many original architectural details throughout. Imagine carriage arrivals, overseen by the bow front entry whose lines continue to the floor above. Expansive windows feature Gothic mullion flourishes, bringing in copious light and offering engaging vistas. The foyer's full height mirror, a massive library replete with glass fronted bookshelves and fireplace, a Great Room has dual chandeliers and a sunny sitting area to enjoy views of the garden and river beyond are just a few features. High ceilings throughout, plaster ornamentation, and later 20th Century modernizations combine to give this home its current Bohemian character. The Carriage House has a lofty feel, a rustic gazebo and an almost 3-acre lot that extends to the water add to the appeal of this rare property. Ownership has been limited to two families and the most recent sale here was over 60 years ago. The rental units, a studio and one bedroom apartment with separate entries at the rear can bring income or be easily brought back to form a single residence once again. Great opportunity for multi-generational living, find a combination that works best you. This all combines to open a world of possibility, let your imagination run wild in a setting both unusual and lovely. Motivated seller!
