A remarkably intact 1878 Victorian offering extraordinary original detail, tremendous scale, and an opportunity for its next steward to preserve and update it for another generation. Located just one block from the Hudson River, this grand home is a striking reminder of an era when homes were created as much for beauty and craftsmanship as for function. From the expansive wraparound porch to the soaring ceilings, beautiful original woodwork, grand staircase, bay windows and multiple fireplace mantels, nearly 3,700 square feet of finished living space is filled with details that would be extraordinarily difficult to reproduce today. The expansive floor plan offers 5 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, multiple gathering spaces, a formal dining room, eat-in kitchen and a large unfinished walk-up attic providing exceptional additional space and possibilities. Outside, the .32-acre corner lot, detached carriage house and impressive wraparound porch complement the home's substantial presence, with recent exterior and porch improvements adding to its appeal. Remarkably preserved rather than reinvented, the home is comfortable and livable today while offering abundant opportunity for thoughtful updating and improvement. For the buyer who values authenticity, artistry and individuality, this is a rare opportunity to own a home from an era when residences were not merely constructed--they were crafted. Just one block from the Hudson River and the 123rd Street boat launch, This home is ready for someone who appreciates what has survived and has the vision to carry it forward.
