52 Summit Ave

The heartbeat of classic Bronxville, fully elevated for 21st century living. And stunning sunsets are complimentary! Designed in 1910 by premier architect William Bates, this stunning 5 bedroom center hall Dutch colonial underwent a massive 3 story renovation and expansion in 2015-2016 which yielded modern and elegant living spaces both inside and out. The dramatic vibe of the oversized front foyer with its stunning ceiling height and custom built staircase sets the stage for a stylish living room with gas fireplace. Beyond the LR, an expanded sunroom has French doors leading to a new oversized bluestone patio which overlooks the professionally designed flat play yard. Best of all, the state of the art cooks kitchen with its 9 ft long island is complemented by an expanded sitting area adjoining the mother of all mudrooms and a brilliantly designed custom built dog room with Dutch door. Not to be upstaged, the formal dining room has a wall of windows and features super elegant neutral tone Venetian plaster walls. Upstairs, the owners created a dreamy primary BR with fireplace, walk in closet and expanded Waterworks marble bath with double sinks. There are two other new ensuite BR/baths on the second floor and two BRs/office on the third with a new hall bath, plus a delightful windowed office area with custom built in desk. And the lower level is a game changer: Expanded and reimagined with custom cabinetry, LED lighting, new egress windows and a modern interactive art installation, the family room, gym and full bath offer 1500 sq ft of legal living space for work or play. All this plus an easy downhill walk to Bronxville School and village.
