Description

"SEVEN SISTERS: A Timeless Hudson River Estate" - For the first time in over 60 years, one of Rockland County's most iconic and inspiring waterfront estates is available at Grand View-on-Hudson's most aspiring address, 225 River Road. Located just 30 minutes from NYC and nestled between the vibrant, historic riverfront villages of Nyack and Piermont, this nearly 2.5-acre property offers unmatched potential for creative buyers seeking a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Whether you're drawn to restoring a grand 5,500 SF 18th-century manor or reimagining one of the most coveted sites on the Hudson River, SEVEN SISTERS is an extraordinary canvas. Originally built in 1780, this expansive home - one of the largest in Grand View - retains irreplaceable architectural details that speak to a bygone era: coffered ceilings, original floor-to-ceiling windows, a gracious wrap-around porch, dual parlors with fireplaces, a stately center hall staircase and a formal dining room with a fireplace and river-facing window seat. Steeped with history, SEVEN SISTERS was the former home of Eugene Polinksy, decorated World War II navigator who flew clandestine missions for the OSS, later becoming a Grammy-winning producer, playwright, actor, and theater critic. The layout includes a grand Hudson River view primary suite with ensuite bath, six additional bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, a generous eat-in kitchen, a butler's pantry and a library with curved window seating and wood-burning fireplace. The estate spans from the water's edge where 222 River Road, a separate deeded waterfront parcel (included in the sale), grants rare private ownership of the shoreline with the ability to build a dock and/or small structure, while the rear of the main property extends all the way back to the Raymond G. Esposito Memorial Trail - a local favorite for walking, jogging, and biking, connecting you to Nyack and Piermont. Few properties offer this combination of privacy, history and direct water access. SEVEN SISTERS is being sold as is, with known plumbing and electrical issues, and the potential presence of mold and asbestos. But for those with imagination and ambition, this is a singular chance to breathe new life into a historic masterpiece - or reinterpret the property entirely on one of the most spectacular stretches of the Hudson River. A place of stories, scale and soul - SEVEN SISTERS is ready for its next chapter... Will you be the one to write it?
