110 Stebbins Road Carmel, New York 10512 United States

Dubbed a "Washingtonian'' colonial, because legend has it that George rode by this very house in Revolutionary days, this 1790s gem on 4.6 private acres is a true stand-out because of the seamless way it merges historical legacy and contemporary luxury. The meticulously maintained original details enchanting Early American facade, exposed beams in each room, sturdy wide plank floors are exquisitely offset with a recently-reconfigured open floor plan enabling flow between foyer, dining room, living room and completely upgraded chef's kitchen. The latter offers a vaulted ceiling, sky light, copper farmhouse sink and top of the line appliances. Additional pluses on the first floor include a glass conservatory for tropical plants (that would make a perfectly exotic winter office), and terracotta-floor mudroom with expansive coffee bar counter. The second floor features a chic primary bedroom with ensuite bath, four additional bedrooms and wealth of closet space. But the stand-out is the Bergdorf Goodman-calibre shoe closet (with custom shelves accommodating @ 100 pairs) with vanity set and a big window view. A separate 1- bedroom guest house with eat-in kitchen is ideal for weekend friends or rental income.Did we mention 110 Stebbins is a sustainable gardener's Eden. The previous owner was an avid horticulturist who once famously planted 40,000 daffodils. In all there are four rose gardens, a Zen garden and vegetable garden (producing up to 100 stalks of corn) all watered by a custom installation that can harvest 700 gallons of rainwater. Adjoining that is an exquisite custom-built greenhouse made from salvaged antique glass window sashes.Rustic spa-calibre serenity comes by way of the glamorous mid-century modern pool, flagstone patio and koi pond. An effortless commute via Metro North train at Croton Falls (5 minutes away) and 75 minute drive to midtown Manhattan.
