214 Downing Avenue, Sea Cliff, NY 11579

Welcome to this stately Center Hall Colonial nestled in the enchanting village of Sea Cliff. Set on a shy half-acre in one of the community's most sought-after locations, this exceptional residence was completely rebuilt and thoughtfully redesigned in 2008, resulting in the beautiful cedar-shingle Colonial you see today. An 8-foot door opens to a gracious double-entry foyer, flanked by a formal living room with fireplace and a spacious formal dining room, creating a perfect flow for entertaining. Oak hardwood floors run throughout the home, adding warmth and continuity. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with Wolf gas cooking, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and abundant custom cabinetry, and seamlessly connects to a sunny breakfast area and family room. Convenience meets luxury with an informal entry from the driveway or two-car attached garage into a well-appointed mudroom. Radiant heat warms all tiled floors, including every bathroom. The first-floor primary suite features French doors to the rear patio, dual closets, a dedicated laundry area, and a four-piece en suite bath. A charming screened-in porch provides a delightful three-season space to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Multiple French doors on the main level lead to an expansive bluestone patio and the rear yard beyond, offering exceptional indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms include one with an en suite bath, along with an additional hall bathroom and a second laundry area. A large, versatile loft-style common space offers the ideal setting for a playroom or lounge, or easily add a 5th bedroom. The unfinished lower level, with separate outside entrance, provides abundant storage and endless potential to create a recreation room, gym, or additional living space. The homes interior requires some work, but offers many luxury amenities and a great opportunity. Natural gas heating and a short walk to Sea Cliff's vibrant waterfront. Bring your vision and make this property your own in the idyllic village of Sea Cliff-a timeless setting for refined North Shore living.
