About this property

Set on 1.28 wooded acres in Ardsley Acres' historic 21 Acres enclave, this mid-century modern was designed by Roy S. Johnson, an apprentice and disciple of Frank Lloyd Wright. The property comes approved, permitted, and ready to build the 3,665 sq ft two-story expansion.

21 Acres was a pioneering cooperative land-use initiative built on Wright's Usonian principles, & the house carries them: post-and-beam construction, clean geometric lines, floor-to-ceiling windows & the woods brought right up to the glass.

The permitted plans take it from there. Enter the entry hall & step into the living rm, anchored by the fireplace at the center of the plan. Gather in the family rm. Host in the separate dining rm. Cook in the kitchen that opens out to the glass patio & the trees beyond. Work from the first-floor office under 9 ft ceilings that run the length of the floor. Upstairs, on a second floor that is entirely new construction, enter the primary bdrm & primary bthrm, set apart from bedrm 2, bedrm 3 & the second full bthrm. Downstairs, the finished lower level holds a guest suite, a guest bedrm, an au pair's rm, a full bthrm & the mud rm off the 467 sq ft attached garage.

Approved & Permitted: A complete, ready-to-build plan set from Escaladas Associates with full architectural drawings and a stamped survey. The design features 9-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows on the main level.

Set in the Ardsley School District, minutes from the Saw Mill River Parkway and the Hudson Line for an easy ride to Grand Central.
