15 Cross River Road , Cross River, NY 10518

Wide plank floors, an original fireplace, and a wide center staircase set the tone in this two-story 1845 Colonial, offering the kind of historic character that's increasingly hard to find. Built in 1845 and tucked beside Ward Pound Ridge Reservation with views of Cross River Reservoir, this antique home retains its original charm while presenting a rare opportunity for restoration in a truly special setting. Set on .78 acres, the home features a new roof and classic period details throughout, including original wood floors and a traditional layout that reflects its era. The main level living area is anchored by the original fireplace, with generous room proportions and natural light throughout. Upstairs, the second floor continues the home's historic feel with two bedrooms and a simple, functional flow. The house is currently configured as a two bedroom but town records reflect three bedrooms. The property also includes a substantial two-story bank barn allowing ground level access to both floors and an additional outbuilding, offering flexible space for storage, workshop use, studio potential, or future creative possibilities. Reservoir views and immediate access to miles of preserved trails enhance the setting, while the Katonah-Lewisboro School District adds to the appeal for those seeking both nature and community. Located just minutes from Metro-North and major local highways, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, acreage, and commuter convenience. A fixer, for certain-but a special one, with history, land, and potential all in one place.
