509 Pelhamdale Avenue

Description

Have you been dreaming about owning your very first home? What if you could own not just your first home but the VERY FIRST HOME built on the block and the surrounding blocks! Built in 1900 and perfected in the past three years 509 Pelhamdale is the definition of melding bygone craft with current comfort & design. Perfectly placed, proportioned and polished, this 5 bedroom light and bright house is sited right in the heart of Pelham. Step in from the glass- walled entry foyer with its generous closet and your eye will immediately focused on the open flow of this joy-filled home. Soaring ceilings and large sun-drenched rooms are accented by graceful arched entry ways, high baseboard moldings, luxuriant hardwood floors and an open floor plan. A large living room holds a peaceful alcove and a separate sun room which serves as an office (or play room, painting studio, writers lair, cello-practice... you decide!). The open flow carries you in to the dining room where chair-rail moldings and an array of over-sized windows (yes, nearly every window throughout are double-glazed & energy efficient) defines the tasteful space which is large enough to host all of the gatherings you hold. You will be wowed as you gaze into the deliciously renovated eat-in kitchen where you can get you inner Julia Child on! Culinary adventures & sour-dough dreams will be easy to whisk up in this kitchen that has been creatively curated. A gorgeous back-splash and quartz countertops are enhanced by smart double oven, a coffee bar, exposed brick, the most clever breakfast bar you can imagine (and now own!), and a sliding glass door out to the al-fresco dining patio and fully fence level back yard. A main level powder room makes life convenient. Up to the second level you will find 3 bedrooms featuring multiple exposures and walk-in closet space, a full hall bath and large linen closet. But wait...there's more! The 3rd floor of the house (I love a 3rd level...don't you?) holds 2 more bedrooms, a large landing, walk-in closet, storage space and more cool exposed brick. The basement adds lifestyle space not reflected in the listed square footage and is permitted. A new central air-conditioning system, a whole house water-filtration system, 200 amps of upgraded power, smart thermostats, original cast iron radiators plus more period details and all of it just freshly painted awaiting your arrival. And if this is not enough, this home is a stroll to Siwanoy Elementary, Middle & High School, 4 Corners shopping, all things Pelham and yes....the train! This home could simply be called location, location, location! Make it yours!
