About 79 Fern St
Beautifully Renovated Classic in New Rochelle! The work has all been done for this adorable and completely renovated Dutch Colonial! Originally built in 1926, the multilevel home recently went through a meticulous remodel including new kitchen, baths, floors, walls, landscaping and more. Located on a tree-lined street in New Rochelle, this turnkey classic with its pristine landscaping welcomes you home. Inside, a journey of exploration leads across four levels including an attic and finished basement. There are four bedrooms, two full baths, two half baths, and plenty of bonus spaces. The sunny main level with its gleaming hardwood floors features a huge front living room with custom built-ins, an open dining room with windows on two sides, and a magnificent gourmet kitchen with white quartz counters, white cabinetry, and upscale appliances. There is also a convenient powder room at this level, as well as full-height sliders opening to the new rear deck. Three bedrooms are at the second level, including a spacious primary bedroom with sunny exposures on two sides. The hallway bath has been beautifully redone with a stone-topped vanity and large frameless shower. At the very top is a lovely fourth bedroom and remodeled full bath. More options await at the basement level, including a large rec room area, a bonus room, a laundry room with sink, and a half-bath. Outdoor spaces are another part of the appeal, with a perfectly manicured front lawn and an expansive and very private backyard bordered by tasteful plantings and trees. A beautiful new wooden deck gazes out over this remarkable oasis. Everything inside the home is new, from recessed lighting to ductless multi-zone HVAC. Home includes a paid-in-full security camera system that will remain with the property. You’ll be close to Huguenot Park with its lovely lakes, Iona University, and Main Street shops and sidewalk cafes.
