Eco-Friendly Charm in Chappaqua School District - Expanded Cape with Bonus Cottage
Set on a peaceful, landscaped half-acre in the Chappaqua School District, this well-maintained, expanded Cape offers flexible living with a lighter environmental footprint. The 3-bedroom main home (lives like a 4-bedroom) and a separate 1-bedroom cottage provide space for guests, extended family, or extra income.
A welcoming family room with stone accent wall opens to a sunlit living room featuring hardwood floors, fireplace, and scenic window views. The open dining area suits any occasion. Private office with deck access offers ideal work-from-home flexibility. The bright kitchen offers generous workspace, a center island, and a sunny bay window, making it a cheerful hub for everyday living.
On the main level, you'll find a peaceful primary bedroom just steps from a full bath with a private entrance. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms (hardwood under carpet) share a hall bath, along with a versatile bonus room ideal for a second office, guest space, or creative studio.
The unfinished basement provides laundry facilities and plenty of storage.
Enjoy the outdoors from multiple inviting spaces. A new Trex deck wraps the side of the home with peaceful pond views, while a stone fire pit below adds cozy charm. On the other side, a brick patio is perfect for grilling and dining alfresco.
The detached 1-bedroom cottage"”with its own driveway and two entrances"”offers great flexibility and privacy, whether used for loved ones or additional income.
Set off the road, this home is framed by mature trees, natural stone outcroppings, and dense foliage that offers privacy and calm. Just beyond the treeline sits a quiet Con Edison facility, a stable neighbor contributing to New York's clean energy future.
With energy-conscious updates, abundant natural light, and space to live simply and beautifully, this home is a smart choice for those seeking comfort and sustainability. School bus stops at end of driveway. Convenient to schools, Millwood shops, Route 100 and the Taconic Parkway for an easy commute.
