About this home

The French Ivy House is a rare and enchanting country retreat in the historic hamlet of Snedens Landing. With its distinctive mansard roof, ivy-covered stucco exterior, and charming secondary wing that feels as though it belongs to another era, this exceptional residence offers timeless character combined with modern luxury. Just 14 minutes from the George Washington Bridge.
Spanning more than 3,500 square feet, the home has been completely renovated with extraordinary attention to detail and can be offered fully furnished for an additional fee. Every finish, furnishing, and design element was custom selected specifically for the property, creating a truly turnkey experience.
Inside, the home is filled with architectural charm: window seats, barrel-shaped dormers, casement windows that welcome fresh country air, two staircases, multiple entrances, and a delightful collection of nooks and intimate spaces. The floor plan is both elegant and inviting, blending sophistication with warmth.
The interiors showcase quarter-sawn oak flooring with radiant heat, large-format Italian marble floors, a beautifully appointed chef's kitchen with premium appliances, custom cabinetry, and marble countertops. Three ensuite bedrooms provide exceptional comfort, including a luxurious primary suite conveniently located on the main level. Additional highlights include hand-painted silver-leaf murals in the dining room, silk wall coverings, bespoke window treatments, custom carpets, and a whole-home Sonos sound system extending throughout both the interior and exterior spaces.
The grounds are equally impressive. Professionally designed by a landscape architect, the property features extensive gardens, mature plantings, stone walls and terraces, multiple water features, and a picturesque koi pond complete with water lilies and visiting frogs. Spring brings spectacular displays of tulips and daffodils, while a natural wall of trees creates privacy and tranquility.
Life in Snedens Landing offers a unique combination of history, natural beauty, and artistic heritage. This historic district traces its roots to the 1600s and has long attracted artists, writers, and creative figures. The neighborhood is exceptionally peaceful, with only one road in and out, resulting in virtually no through traffic.
The home is within walking distance of the Hudson River, a small sandy beach, and nearly 3,000 acres of protected parkland overlooking the river. Tallman State Park adjoins the community to the north, while the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory and the Palisades Interstate Park are accessible from the south.
Nearby amenities include the Palisades Library, the Palisades Community Center, the popular farmers market, and The Market café. The vibrant riverfront village of Piermont—with its restaurants, shops, and scenic waterfront promenade—is just five minutes away by car or a pleasant 30-minute walk.
Whether as a full-time residence or a weekend escape, The French Ivy House offers the rare opportunity to experience country living that feels worlds away from New York City—while remaining only 25 minutes from Manhattan....
