A separate family room offers additional living space, perfect for relaxing or gathering. The recently renovated eat-in kitchen is equipped with quality appliances including a Thermador double oven, six-burner cooktop and dishwasher, and Bosch refrigerator, along with a garbage disposal, providing both style and functionality. The lower level significantly expands the home’s living space with approximately 1,700 square feet of mostly finished, renovated, windowed space.

Set on a generous lot, the backyard is both expansive and private, offering the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining or quiet enjoyment. A deck overlooks the property and leads to a beautifully usable yard complete with a fire pit, ideal for gatherings year-round. This home has been carefully maintained with many important updates already completed, including a roof, siding, and driveway all approximately two years old, as well as a one-year-old hot water heater. It is equipped with a forced air / central HVAC system along with an insulated attic for improved efficiency. The ranch-style layout provides effortless, one-level living that is increasingly hard to find, while also offering excellent potential for future expansion. The existing footprint makes it easy to build up and create a two-story home, giving buyers flexibility to grow into the property over time. With its ideal layout, substantial finished lower level, generous backyard, and unbeatable location close to shopping, dining, transportation, and all that Scarsdale/Northern New Rochelle has to offer, 168 Dorchester Road presents a rare opportunity to own a home that combines comfort, convenience, and long-term potential in one of the area’s most desirable neighborhoods.
