9 Sturgis Road, Bronxville, (Eastchester), NY, 10708

Architectural Nuance Meets Modern Bronxville Tranquility. An exceptional, sundrenched John Downs-designed home that marries architectural refinements with modern functionality. Its colonnaded wrap-around porch offers indoor-outdoor living year-round while its signature two-story windowed turret offers eye-popping sunrises and sunsets in the quietly luxurious primary suite office. Sited on a pin-drop quiet street, you are minutes to Bronxville Village, schools, the centuries-old Bronxville Field Club, and Metro North station with its 30-minute train to Manhattan. Enter through a salvaged antique front door to a soaring double-height entrance with beautiful millwork and clerestory windows; on one side the foyer leads to the classic, high-ceilinged living room, and on the other to the 1st floor guest suite with bedroom, office, shared bath and separate entrance to veranda. The sunny, open-concept chef's kitchen with 4 exposures offers Rutt cabinets and every luxury appliance including Fisher & Paykel stove top, restaurant-grade DCS double oven, 2 Miele dishwashers and Dornbracht faucets. Accommodating any size crowd for breakfast or lunch is a plush wrap-around banquette. Also in this space is a game room/family room with big screen TV, wood-burning fireplace and wet bar with icemaker and wine refrigerator. The second floor features a welcoming primary suite with elegant tray ceiling, large walk-in closet and spa bathroom with dual sink, tub and oversized shower. The definite scene-stealer is the double-height office/den tower off the primary bedroom, boasting cathedral ceilings and engulfed with windows. Additionally, there are 3 large bedrooms, an updated hall bath, large laundry and storage room. The entire third floor is a large, multi-tasking open living space with built-ins, workout space, massive storage rooms, full bath and oversized windows letting in natural light. Boasting lush, flat landscape and spectacular elevated outdoor sportcourt, this outstanding residence makes you feel like you're on vacation year-round. As a border property, 9 Sturgis is a compelling value proposition: use of the Bronxville schools with a considerably lower tax bill than most village properties.
