Three Gables is a well maintained, historic jewel box, unique in craft and character. Convenient to Manhattan, it proudly stands in Snedens Landing, one of the most sought-after communities in the Hudson River valley. This historic hamlet dates to the late 1600s and is nestled among parklands along the Hudson River. The secluded neighborhood has minimal thru traffic, with a single wooded road as access, and is convenient to numerous hiking and biking trails.

Crossing the threshold of “The Landing” transports one to a place and time like no other!

Three Gables is an easy stroll through a park like setting to the Palisades Community Center, Palisades Free Library, The Market, Post Office, Palisades Swim Club, and public transportation to NYC. The home is only a 5-minute drive to the historic riverfront village of Piermont, with its many restaurants, shops, art galleries, and marinas. It is a mere 12 minutes from Whole Foods and only 12 miles from the GW Bridge, yet is immersed in nature. Ownership of the residence entitles one to apply for membership to the storied Snedens Landing Tennis Association.

This vintage home overlooks “The Triangle”, Snedens Landing’s beloved community park, which is home to local traditional holiday gatherings and provides additional green space in front of the home. The grounds offer a broad lawn, organic vegetable garden with dry stack blue stone walls, terrace lounge, and deep deck for outdoor dining with a charming, detached 2-car garage and studio space rising from a flagstone parking area. The third-floor unimproved attic, currently a home gym, offers many options with charming windows, dramatic framing, and a large storage closet. The lower level has a large, remodeled laundry with a second refrigerator, and TV, a workshop, lots of additional storage, and easy access to the yard through double bilco doors. The structures are well maintained, with mechanical systems and most appliances recently replaced and or upgraded ... and it Includes a generator too!

Built by the Johnson family in the 1930s, Three Gables was enlarged and renovated by a renowned local architect in 2004. Its current designer owners have further enhanced the light drenched open plan with rich texture, finishes, and fittings. The double height living room and adjacent living spaces are resplendent with coffered ceilings, a magnificent hand-crafted stone fireplace, mahogany paneling and mantle, artisan wrought iron balconies, exquisite custom lighting, and hand-hewn heart pine floors milled from reclaimed old growth beams. The generous eat in kitchen embraces you in old world charm with detailed character pine cabinetry, expansive Carrera island, and French style doors, while the bathrooms are classic and timeless.

Three Gables is the perfect home for the discerning, looking for unique style on a manageable scale. A jewel box with the feel of a modern early 20th century English country home!!! Only 25 minutes to NYC!!! Nothing Compares!!!
