Perched atop a gentle knoll overlooking the Ardsley Country Club golf course, the iconic Washington House is Ardsley Park’s original estate—an extraordinary 1899 English Tudor masterpiece, flawlessly restored for modern luxury. Set on 1.29 acres of lush, manicured grounds with a pool, hot tub, and century-old evergreens, this 16-room residence offers a rare blend of architectural history, elegance, and resort-style living. A true one-of-a-kind legacy property. 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.
