169 Clinton Avenue

At the summit of sought-after Riverview Manor in Dobbs Ferry, up the hill from the prominent Masters School, sits this handsome 3,525-square-foot brick home on a picturesque half-acre property. Gut-renovated and expanded in 2003 by a leading local architect, this jewel-box home has a subdued exterior that conceals luxury within. In 2018, a sturdy brick four-car garage/studio with powder room was added, offering an additional 970 square feet of versatile space and a soaring 15-foot ceiling. The home is distinguished by its graceful floor plan, high ceilings, abundant natural light, elegant trim, custom finishes, and diagonally laid oak floors. A stunning foyer features a hand-painted 12-foot-high octagonal dome ceiling, gilded walls, and limestone floors. Stately columns open to an extraordinary living room with tray ceiling and huge bay window seat overlooking a raised stone patio and verdant yard. An exquisite formal dining room, added in 2006, ends in its own bay and opens easily to the terrace for outdoor entertaining. Savor a glamorous eat-in kitchen, where top-ofthe-line appliances, radiant limestone floor, 9-foot-6-inch tray ceiling, and granite counters make this room a pleasure. Glide two steps up to the bedroom level including a luxurious primary bedroom suite with uplit tray ceiling, double closets, makeup niche, and adjoining bath with Venetian plaster walls shimmering in sunlight. Two additional spacious bedrooms enjoy tranquil views of backyard blooms. Retreat a few steps down to an expansive family room offering a marble bar, African rosewood floor, limestone fireplace, full bath, and wide French doors opening to a stone patio. In addition to the rear-yard garage/studio—ideal for a potential home office or accessory apartment—the lower level includes an attached two-car garage with abundant storage. This distinctive home feels like an oasis, yet the Masters School, Croton Aqueduct, village shopping, and Metro-North station are all just steps away. This distinctive home is a must-see for those who crave a unique and wondrous living environment.
