45 Chestnut Street
Ardsley, NY 10502

With sweeping, verdant grounds, an amazing array of specimen plantings, and unique architecture connecting the outdoors to the interior, 45 Chestnut Street is an idyllic, bucolic sanctuary nestled in a tranquil cul-de-sac in Ardsley school district. Japanese maples, rhododendrons, hostas, select ferns, and arborvitae are interspersed throughout the yard, creating a spectacular tableau. Charming wending footpaths lead to multiple nooks; barbecue at the roomy patio or roast marshmallows at the generous fire-pit area! The oversized, partially covered deck -- with room aplenty for outdoor furniture and dining table -- provides yet another venue for gathering and dining al fresco. And vast lawn space remains for kicking a soccer ball, a frisbee throw, or simply lounging in a hammock! Inside, this 1,739 SF meticulously maintained Storybook Tudor possesses the consummate blend of classic details and modern updates and an airy, open-concept layout. Through a vintage arched door, the stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the spacious living room. An expanse of glass walls and French doors connect the deck to the living room, bringing nature indoors. Currently, the fireplace area offers a quiet space for relaxation while the rear portion of the living room (featuring new drum chandelier and ceiling with exposed wood beams) offers ample space for gatherings, but prospects for alternative furniture arrangements with the outdoors as the main focal point are exciting! Flanking the living room through a wide aperture is the nicely sized, light-filled dining room with double exposures and stylish new chandelier. In turn, the dining room opens to a modern kitchen which features stainless steel appliances, apron sink, peninsula with counter seating, and chic new sputnik and pendant lighting...the heart of the home! Adjacent to the kitchen is a mud room that provides access to the backyard and has plumbing rough-ins for a potential powder room - a versatile space! Retreat to the second level for evening's slumber to two bedrooms and an inviting primary bedroom with double exposures and a wall of closets. A bright, updated full bathroom completes the upper level. Wood floors enhance the first and second levels. The lower level provides an additional 540 square feet of finished storage space and full bathroom. Architectural plans with two options for second floor expansion are available. Greenburgh Recreation and Hartsdale resident parking eligible. Taxes are prior to STAR. View this listing at: http://mintunath.laffey.com/mls=984619
