15 room Detached House for sale in Suffern, United States

Built into the mountain of Harriman State Park in the early 1900s, this home tells the love story between the builder and his wife. His diary, written with the same perfection and care that he poured into the building of this home, details the 20 years he spent constructing it. The result is a perfect blend of the Victorian and Arts and Crafts eras. From the wrap-around porch and turret that spans all four stories, to the extensive woodwork and detail that distinguishes this epic home. It is an architectural marvel allowing for the natural seasonal expansion of the mountain from which it was carved. Period details abound including custom leaded-glass pocket doors, thick fieldstone walls, a whimsical turret, cozy fireplaces, window seats, and bricks from the old Nyack hospital used to build the front porch. With 10-foot ceilings and a plethora of windows, you can enjoy spectacular views and an easy indoor/outdoor lifestyle. This 6+ bed, 3.5 bath home offers nearly 5,000 sq ft of living space including a full, walk-up attic and finished basement.
