A stately castle decorating Van Corlear Place for the past century, this stunning, standalone two-family home with a large, private backyard is your chance to own income-generating property just over the bridge from Manhattan- just 20 minutes to Grand Central on the MetroNorth.

This Arts and Crafts-style home has been refreshed while retaining all of its original 1920's charm. Upon entering the main foyer, you'll notice the unique, marble-clad walls, an homage to the days when Marble Hill was being mined for its dolomitic marble- quarried for the federal buildings in lower Manhattan when New York was the firstcapitalof theUnited Statesin the 1780s.

The second floor is a gorgeous example of arts and crafts interiors from this time period, and retains much of the original millwork, windows, and parquet flooring. Original lighting fixtures, window panes and trim, door hardware, unique built-ins and cabinetry offer old world charm while leaving room for personalization for a new owner.

The second floor unit is the main living space of the home and includes the kitchen, formal dining room, living room, and the sitting room- which boasts a gorgeous brick, wood-burning fireplace and original cast-iron stove. The residence includes four bedrooms, one bathroom, and direct access to the backyard and cellar. You'll find charm all around, from the primary bedroom's huge bay windows to the octagonal-shaped bedroom with tall glass windows overlooking the backyard.

The first floor is currently a tenant occupied rental apartment. It is a two bedroom, one bathroom unit, with a large living room and sitting room (currently converted to a third bedroom). This unit also features a large eat-in kitchen.
