Originally built in 1899, the distinguished Washington House is a breathtakingly restored example of early Arts and Crafts English Tudor architecture. Perched atop a gentle knoll with sweeping views of the Ardsley Country Club golf course, this one-of-a-kind 16-room estate sits on 1.29 acres of lush, manicured grounds, framed by century-old evergreens. A pool, hot tub, and timeless landscaping create an idyllic retreat, seamlessly blending history with modern luxury. The first residence in Ardsley Park, 130 Washington Avenue, was built in 1899 on land leased to the Ardsley Country Club by the Dobbs Ferry Land and Improvement Company. Serving as a model home for the development, it initially functioned as a guest quarters for the club before being sold in 1904. Believed to be the work of Trowbridge & Livingston—the esteemed architects behind the original Ardsley Country Club, Newport Casino, B. Altman Building, & St. Regis Hotel. Inside, grand formal spaces unfold with soaring 10-foot ceilings, exquisite architectural details, and magnificent fireplaces. A wall of windows floods the expansive living room with natural light, showcasing fluted Ionic columns that exude timeless sophistication. The richly wood-paneled library, complete with a fireplace, invites intimate gatherings, while the stately formal dining room, also with a fireplace, opens to a private terrace—perfect for elegant entertaining. A striking solarium/family room features soaring cathedral ceilings and panoramic windows, creating a light-filled sanctuary. The renovated chef’s kitchen preserves its historic charm with an original built-in hutch, a sunny breakfast area, and doors leading to the rear grounds. A graceful staircase ascends to the second level, revealing a serene bedroom suite with a fireplace and private bath, plus three additional bedrooms and a spacious deck with breathtaking golf course views. The primary suite enjoys a secluded wing overlooking the pool, boasting custom closets, an en-suite bath, and a fireplace. The third level offers three additional bedrooms, two connecting playrooms, a luxurious bath with a soaking tub, a cedar closet, and generous storage. Nestled in the heart of Dobbs Ferry’s prestigious Ardsley Park, this home enjoys a prime location—just an eight-minute stroll to the village’s charming restaurants and boutiques. For commuters, the 38-minute Metro-North ride to NYC provides effortless access to city life while preserving the tranquility of this historic estate. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Westchester history, where timeless elegance meets modern luxury—Washington House is truly a residence like no other.
