THE COLUMNS

THE COLUMNS Circa 1780

The Columns is a the perfect place for all your location needs.

Meet the grandeur of this magnificent 18th Century Greek Revival Estate Home, perfectly situated within its own 2.5 acre private park-like compound. Meticulous period appointments are to be relived and enjoyed here, in this painstakingly maintained residence.

 

Enter the estate through iron gates, adding a touch of mystique and seclusion, one is instantly transported to a different century, passing by European inspired sculptures and antique street lamps domestically imported from the streets of Philadelphia, leading up to a circular driveway. The grand private front portico, framed by dramatic, soaring columns, overlooks the expansive grounds, creating a serene outdoor space, rarely duplicated in today's landscape architecture. Internally, original antique chandeliers, gaslights, intricate crown moldings and wide plank hardwood floors run throughout the home, while an opulent staircase with mahogany balustrade and 12' ceilings on the main level establish a luxurious front parlor and living room with twin fireplaces. 8 fireplaces in total with original ornate mantels, formal dining room with elegant French doors, opening to the heated, wood paneled solarium.

 

A stunning detached 3-car garage, complete with lofted space. Great Parking! Only 10 minutes to the new Mario Cuomo bridge and 30 minutes to the GW bridge and NYC
