Located in sought after Riverview Manor and beautifully paired with its .40-acre double deep parcel, this 1920’s cedar-clad Arts and Crafts inspired home enjoys a privacy and tranquility seldom experienced in the Rivertowns. From the elevated front porch where you see beautiful views through the trees to the private back yard where a two-tiered deck overlooks flower gardens and dramatic rock outcroppings, surrounded by Maples, Oaks and Pines, 34 Chestnut is a rare find so close to Manhattan. Inside, a sunlit Great Room wrapped with 14 windows opens onto the deck overlooking the botanical panorama - a true gardener’s sanctuary. The Living Room anchored by a stone-mantled fireplace with a striking floor-to-ceiling fieldstone chimney rising to a 17’ vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. Adjacent to the living room are two versatile bedrooms. One, ideal as a home office, features a bay window framing lovely sunset views. A convenient Jack-n-Jill bath completes this level. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms and a second full bath. The east bedroom boasts a window perfectly placed to view the changing phases of the moon, while the second bedroom enjoys private side yard views. The home is just a stroll to Hillside Woods, Sugar Pond for ice skating, the Village Pool and tennis courts. The Old Croton Aqueduct Trail and downtown Hastings are only part way down the hill. A detached garage and 4-car driveway complete the picture. Expect the unexpected - a rare haven awaits!
