Welcome to Rockholme at 1 Heritage Hill Road, the last surviving grand home of the iconic Stearns Estate summer estate Cedar Lawn. Originally consisting of 99 acres, Cedar Lawn was purchased in 1849. After some dividing and sales in the mid-1900s, Rockholme the last piece owned by the Stearn family was sold to a private owner in 1978. Steeped in New York City and Irvington history, Isaac Stearn would sail his 200-foot yacht, Virginia, from Rockholme to New York City daily to manage his fleet of department stores. Built as a large hilltop summer home for entertaining, Rockholme is now perched in what is known as Dearman Park, a community of 16 recently built luxury homes. The original Cedar Lawn property is now home to Irvington's top-rated High School and Middle School, Irvington Woods, and O'Hara Nature Center, all within walking distance. Sitting on the largest 1.75-acre parcel in the Dearman development, the home still boasts elegance and grandeur with views of the Hudson. This Colonial estate-style home features a grand entry foyer, grand staircase, back service staircase, and guest wing. It has 8,167 square feet of living space, 3 finished levels, 10 bedrooms, 4 formal en-suite bedrooms, 5 full baths, 3 half baths, and 3 formal fireplaces. 2 butler pantries, a circular driveway, and a partially finished Basement with multiple workshops. The hardwood floors throughout the house are in good condition, and all utilities, electrical systems, and plumbing are functioning and in good working order. This is a unique opportunity to own and restore a true piece of New York and Westchester history that has withstood the test of time. There is potential to Grieve taxes
