Prominently sited across from Hastings' beloved Zinsser Park, find 618 Broadway: an exquisitely restored 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom Victorian home plus a converted 1500 sf Carriage House, teeming with possibilities! Located on a nearly 1/2 acre corner parcel, so close to town, this prized home is only minutes from village shopping, MetroNorth train, award-winning schools, local pool, and the Aqueduct Trail. Period architectural highlights include 3 fireplaces, 3 balconies, 9.5' ceilings and extensive moldings. Past sturdy stone piers, enter the glass-enclosed front porch to find a grand foyer with wood wainscoting, beamed ceiling, pocket doors, and a charming inglenook with wood-burning fireplace. A soaring staircase with carved balustrade rises three floors and is awash in sunlight from the elegant leaded glass bay windows (carefully refurbished + insulated). Morning light floods the spacious, modern eat-in kitchen, including cherry cabinets, Viking stove with original brick feature wall, and breakfast banquette overlooking the artfully landscaped grounds. A versatile work station is conveniently located in the adjoining butler's pantry. Upstairs, enjoy all that the primary suite has to offer: large sitting room with fireplace and built-in bookshelves, cheerful bedroom with 3 exposures, bathroom with separate WC, ample closets, and private deck with treetop views into the park. A 5th bedroom on the 3rd floor, ideal for a home office, provides a place of refuge when on its remote roof terrace with special year-round Hudson River views. The unique Carriage House, well-suited for office and transitional lifestyles, is comprised of an enormous great room, kitchen and office below and two spacious bedrooms, bath and laundry above. (Comes with permit to rent out!) This pristine home is an exceptional opportunity for those seeking privacy, history, and beauty, with all the amenities of being in the heart of downtown.
