The stone wall lined driveway rises from street level and leads you to this beautifully updated raised ranch, which sits on a near-acre property in the highly desirable southern part of Yorktown, offering the ultimate blend of commuter convenience and tranquil living. The entire property serves as a peaceful sanctuary, lovingly curated by the current owner with specimen plantings and a soothing water feature. While the setting feels incredibly private and worlds away, it sits just minutes from the Taconic State Parkway for an effortless commute. Inside, the home features numerous high-ticket updates completed through the years, including remodeled bathrooms, newer windows, an updated fireplace, split air conditioning units, and a newer furnace. The main level boasts classic wood flooring throughout, an eat-in kitchen, a dining area, an expanded hall bathroom, and a comfortable primary bedroom with its own private bath. The fully finished lower level offers excellent flexible living space, featuring an inviting family room anchored by a warm brick fireplace, an additional full bathroom, and a spacious fourth bedroom that is currently set up as a creative studio and sitting room.
