5 Cotswold Drive, North Salem, NY

About 5 Cotswold Drive

VERMONT IN WESTCHESTER! The townhouse at 5 Cotswold Drive, North Salem is unique. Sitting on the expansive back deck, you will view an old stone wall, a small rock cliff, a large glacier erratic rock and a lush level yard, backed by an ancient towering oak. Listening on the bench near the woodpile (for the forced air fireplace), you might think you are in an aviary, especially during the spring and fall bird migrations. The Cotswold community echoes this setting in nature: a planned unit development with private roads for 38 houses clustered on about 44 acres to preserve open space and forest. Inside the home at #5 are wood floors of Old Hickory and Natural Cherry that have what flooring companies call “character”. The kitchen has a Verdi Vecchio granite counter and custom Brookhaven cabinets. The front door opens on a dramatic two-story cathedral entryway. This country luxury comes without the hassles of a free-standing house. An HOA maintains lawns, removes snow, paints and repairs the exteriors and roofs and much more. And, it is minutes from Metro North and Interstate 684, enabling an easy commute to New York City and access to Westchester, Connecticut and upstate New York. If you want culture near your home, the Caramoor Center for Music and Art presents world-class concerts in a beautiful setting. North Salem is also home to the award winning, professional Schoolhouse Theater. The Katonah Museum of Art is just down route 22. The Westchester Bluegrass Club is 2 miles away. Want fine dining? The Farmer and the Fish Restaurant is nearby, while Cenadou, a Michelin-recognized restaurant offering French bistro-style dining is only a few minutes away. Want more outdoors? North Salem has nature preserves and a County park at Mountain Lakes Camp. 9 miles away is Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, a Westchester County park with 4,315 acres of hiking, camping, cross country skiing and horse trails. North Salem itself is in the heart of horse country. Need to unwind? The house has a steam shower and a Jacuzzi. Whether you are looking for a starter house or a downsize or a weekend getaway, this 2 bedroom, 2 ½ bath townhouse with a living space of 1686 square feet is perfect with an unparallel location.
