40 Depeyster Street + Building Lot Sleepy Hollow, NY 10591

***HOUSE + BUILDING LOT*** Own a part of great American history... this 1851 home, built by Hiram Bird, is reminiscent of the origins of "Beekmantown," now known as Sleepy Hollow. Exactly 100 years later, in 1951, Armando "Chick" Galella moved in and resided here until his recent passing at 100 years old, and had been one of the longest surviving Veterans of Pearl Harbor, a true American hero! The home is a legal Two-family, that was converted by the family many years ago to accommodate multi-generational living. Simply remove one door, and the upstairs kitchen, to revert back to a glorious and spacious center hall Colonial home. The home and grounds still showcase some of the original details and charm, including the stained-glass panel in the front door and its brass knob, high ceilings on the first floor with carved moldings, as well as the hitching post partially buried in front of the house in a grassy patch near the street... reflective of the times when this stately property was built. In addition to the home, the offering includes an already subdivided building lot (based on the lot size/dimensions, a Single or Two-family home up to 2300 finished Sq. Ft. can be built without a variance) which fronts Washington Street (yes, named after "that" George, and interestingly, the petition for the Washington Street naming was lead and filed by the original owner, Hiram Bird). Both parcels are located in the R-5 Zoning District which allows for up to a Five-family home, on each parcel. Close to everything... the Hudson River, Metro North rail station, parks/recreation, vibrant Main Street Tarrytown, and the highly anticipated Edge-on-Hudson development which includes luxury condominiums, shops, dining, DeCicco & Sons gourmet market, and more. Enjoy your Saturday mornings at the TaSH Farmer's Market at Patriots Park, located across the street. House alone being sold separately under MLS #6196861
