Property Description
This home is a tasteful mid-century rework of a 1928 country home located in Brayton Park, a hidden gem. This sublime natural setting is made magical by extensive specimen plantings, custom stonework and walkways, a koi pond, the river view and sunsets.
You have an open porch, a stone floored screen porch, and extensive decking to appreciate it all from. Your property meanders West down the hill to meet the lightly used 26 Acre Crawbuckie Nature Preserve with 1.5 miles of trails. 200 yards to the East runs the NYC/Croton Aqueduct Trailway, which stands as one of the best on the East Coast.
A little history? An immediate neighbor is the 9Br and 9Bth Moorehaven, which was bought by Clement Moore of “Night Before Christmas” fame in 1839 when it was already 100 years old and had been the furthest-north tenant farm of Phillipsburg Manor. His family lived in “The Christmas House” for another 100 years.
What's In the Area?
29 Waller Ave is close to a number of Ossining’s many parks and playgrounds. Here are a few, with driving distance to each (per Google Maps):
It is 2 minutes to Nelson Park (large fields, great playground, tennis courts, .35 mile paved path) and Nelson Sitting Park (fun playground), 3 minutes to the Sing Sing Kill Greenway (beautiful stroll in the Sing Sing Kill gorge), 4 minutes from Snowden Avenue Park (fun playground, skate park), 4 minutes to Richard Wishnie Park (.33 mile paved walkway around a reservoir), 4 minutes to Sparta Park (playground, picnic tables and river views), 4 minutes to waterfront parks Henry Gourdine and Louis Engel (playgrounds, walking paths, grills, beaches, spray park and more), 5 minutes to Arthur J Jones Park (great playground and small basketball court), 7 minutes to Veteran’s Park (LOTS to do here), 7 minutes to Crawbuckie Park and Nature Preserve (winding trails along the Hudson River in a beautiful setting), and 8 minutes to Cedar Lane Park (dog park, Cedar Lane Arts Center, Organic Community Garden and more). You can see pictures of each park at the links above.
You’re also 12 minutes to 1000-acre nature preserve Teatown Reservation, 4 minutes to the award-winning Ossining Public Library, 3 minutes to the Ossining Rec Center (and indoor pool) and around the corner from Main Street (Farmer’s Market and many restaurants, First Village Coffee, Sing Sing Kill Brewery and more), and 5 minutes to the Ossining Train Station.
What about supermarkets? Your closest supermarket is CTown (in Ossining, great produce!), a 4-minute drive. You’re also 5 minutes in different directions from ACME Markets (Briarcliff) and Stop & Shop (Ossining). You’re 10 minutes from Mrs. Greens (in Briarcliff, generally pricier organic food), 11 minutes from DeCicco (in Millwood, lots of tasty food and tons of craft beers), 20 minutes from 2 Whole Foods (in Chappaqua and White Plains) and 23 minutes from Trader Joe’s (Hartsdale). Wholesale clubs? BJ’s (in Yorktown) is 22 minutes, Costco in Yonkers is 25 minutes, and Costco in Port Chester is 30 minutes.
What about supermarket delivery to your home (with online purchases)? Whole Foods delivers to Ossining through Amazon Prime. Stop & Shop and Shop Rite both deliver to Ossining, and Instacart offers delivery for many supermarkets, wholesale clubs, pharmacies and more.
Walking to the Ossining Train Station takes 10 minutes. You’re right around the corner from so much of what the Ossining village has to offer, that much of the above is also an easy walk.
