A ‘master’ful Bronxville property
Bronxville is a village known for its tony Tudor homes, and there are few better examples of this than this French Normandy Tudor on Masterton Road.
The 8,193-square-foot house may have been built in 1927, during the great decade of Tudors, but it boasts tremendous flexibility in layout, adaptable spaces and every modern convenience, thanks to recent structural renovations and fresh cosmetic restorations.
High ceilings, oak beams and restored woodwork adorn the interiors of the six bedroom, 5 and ½-bathroom manse. The stone entry turret leads into a charming gallery, a sunken living room with wood-burning fireplace and a private home office with doors to front and back terraces.

With true indoor-outdoor egress, the kitchen area steps down to a 575-square-foot patio, designed for multiseason entertaining. A mudroom-garage and back stair connectsthe first floor to the lower level, which houses a theater-playroom, a climate-controlled wine cellar, a large gym-Pilates space with a bathroom and a laundry area.
The second floor presents you with a sophisticated primary wing that includes an Architectural Digest-worthy bedroom with a sitting room, dressing area with wood-burning fireplace, ensuite renovated bathroom and custom-built closets and cabinetry. Additionally, there are four family bedrooms, plus a wealth of spaces that can be personally curated to serve as a homework room, yoga studio or office. There are also three renovated full bathrooms, plus a private deck with hot tub overlooking the gardens. The third floor offers an ensuite bedroom with renovated bathroom, a media-music room and a custom craft-project studio.
