4 Deer Run, Sparkill, NY Silver-screen legend Arlene Dahl and her husband, the award-winning perfume bottle designer Marc Rosen, have listed their longtime Rockland County home at 4 Deer Run in Sparkill, NY , with Douglas Elliman’s Michelle Licata. Known by the name Treetops, the gated 7-acre estate is currently on the market for $4.95M. In an area known for its wonderful historic architecture, Treetops stands apart as one of the finest period homes in the region. A place of extraordinary beauty and romance, this distinguished Italianate Victorian residence has stood proudly since 1859 and retains the classic elegance of its storied past—an oasis of serenity just 30 minutes north of New York City.   After encountering the home 40 years ago, when the couple was first engaged, Rosen oversaw a complete renovation and restoration that included resurrecting as much of the original layout as possible and stripping paint from the eight fireplaces to reveal the original marble. Over the years, Treetops has hosted many star-studded charity events and celebratory gatherings, including the wedding of Dahl’s son Lorenzo Lamas and 80 th birthday party for Helen Hayes.   From its handsome mansard roof and broad verandas to its refined interiors resplendent with ornate moldings, original hardwood floors and marble fireplace mantels, the home’s approximately 3,300 sf of living space is elegant and inviting. In total, there are 6 bedrooms, 3 baths and one powder room. The property includes a pool and an antique 3-story barn with a garage and separate apartment.   Beautiful and serene, the picturesque setting enhanced with specimen plantings and centuries-old trees, offers supreme privacy, which is further bolstered by the neighboring 687-acre Tallman Mountain State Park. Nearby recreational amenities include the Rockland Country Club and its fine golf course, as well as boating, fishing, and kayaking on the Hudson River. Easily accessed via Route 9W and the Palisades Parkway, the locale is also convenient to the renowned artistic enclave of Snedens Landing, and the charming village of Piermont offering fine dining and shopping along the Hudson.
