560 Pelhamdale Ave

This sun-filled 1925 Mediterranean-style Colonial, defined by beautiful architectural detail and thoughtful updates, is ideally located in Pelham Manor with easy access to Siwanoy Elementary and Pelham Middle and High Schools, Pelham’s Four Corners, and Metro-North (29 minutes to Grand Central). Inside, the home feels bright and gracious, with 9-foot ceilings on both floors, original herringbone oak floors, and oversized Palladian windows paired with updated double-paned windows throughout, bringing in exceptional natural light while enhancing comfort. A welcoming vestibule opens to a center-hall foyer and original staircase, with the front entry framed by a curved fanlight transom. The living room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, flows into a sunroom wrapped in arched windows with French doors opening to a private balcony. The dining room is well-proportioned for both everyday meals and larger gatherings and connects to a flexible adjoining room that works equally well as an office, playroom, or den. The 2016 custom kitchen renovation is both functional and inviting, featuring quartz countertops, stainless appliances, double ovens, a five-burner gas cooktop, a built-in banquette with storage, and a butler’s pantry with wine fridge, glass-front cabinetry, and a second dishwasher. A side door opens directly to a private patio and a mudroom keeps daily life organized. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a renovated bath with a marble-topped vanity, oversized walk-in shower, radiant heated floors, and a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, along with access to a private balcony, while three additional bedrooms share a renovated hall bath with radiant heat. The finished walkout lower level offers a bonus 577 square feet of flexible space for recreation, fitness, or a home office, along with a powder room, laundry, a large storage/utility room, and direct access to a rare attached two-car garage. Outside, multiple outdoor spaces provide flexibility for both entertaining and everyday use, including a secluded patio for dining al fresco, mature landscaping, an expansive level lawn framed by a privacy hedge, and two upper balconies. Modern systems, including central air, a whole-house electrical upgrade, and an alarm system, add comfort and efficiency. A thoughtful blend of architectural elegance, preserved detail, and well-executed modern updates in a home that feels both refined and easy to live in.
