Property Description
"BOULEVARD OF ARCHITECTURAL DREAMS" - Welcome to a 1967 Charles P. Winter masterpiece at 159 Tweed Boulevard (the Mulholland Drive of Rockland County) with commanding views of nature, the Hudson River and the TZ Bridge, less than 30 minutes from NYC. Charles Winter was a famous mid-century modernist architect known for connecting every element of the house to its surrounding environment and 159 Tweed Boulevard is a phenomenal demonstration of just that. Built and designed for owner/former CEO, author and sculptor, Peter S. Karp and wife Mona Pecheux, this unique 5/6 bedroom, 3.5 bath residence has never been on the market. Reimagined and further expanded in the 1990's by local architect Michael Esmay, protégé of Charles Winter, the 5500+ SF residence features an attached 500 SF office/steel beam "garage" that is the ideal artist's studio overlooking the Hudson River. With multiple decks, balconies, peaceful nooks and crannies throughout the space, a library, plus nearly an all glass dining room with loft, this multi-level home is like living inside a perpetual mural that changes by the season. Entering the main living room with wood burning fireplace, commanding views and intricate wood detail throughout, your mind will race through the infinite possibilities this space offers. During the expansion in the 90's, a sprawling extension was attached to the main residence, creating an ideal guest or au pair suite. The property totals .59 acres, on two parcels of land, sitting within the award-winning South Orangetown School District, minutes to the bustling riverfront villages of Nyack and Piermont with boutique shops and five star dining. 159 Tweed Boulevard has a quiet resonance to it that feels "miles away," yet it's only a convenient 25 minute drive to New York City. This property is priced well under market value for Tweed Boulevard as it is looking for the discerning eye to cosmetically renovate it to modern standards. Best of all, taxes can be grieved to approximately $24K (before STAR) based on the current asking price... Well, what are you waiting for? Bring your vision before someone else does!
