Property Description
The current owner has enjoyed this home and Ossining since 1988. He often said “wouldn’t it be nice if…” and then made those enhancements and changes to the home with quality materials, impeccable workmanship and excellent taste.
28 Maurice Ave features an elegant true center hall layout with antique esthetic. The formal living room and dining room flow seamlessly to a fully remade live-in kitchen.
The kitchen’s working area is open, with granite pass throughs to spacious breakfast/sitting room leading out to a covered screen porch. This all overlooks lovely gardens and a party-sized patio with raised stone and masonry fire pit.
This multi-environment home has a walk-in lower level space with exercise/media room, office & garden room, and literally something for everyone. Work at home or walk to the train station (1 mile away).
The home features 3 bedrooms with a possible 4th; the first floor dining room could serve as a bedroom with convenient access to full bath.
There are 2 hand-made marble fireplaces, antique comb pine floors, stainless appliances, & granite countertops. The lower-level space was finished with drainage and has a CO.
What's In the Area?
28 Maurice Ave is centrally located and close to a number of Ossining’s many parks and playgrounds. Here are a few, with driving distance to each (per Google Maps):
It is 2 minutes to Nelson Park (large fields, great playground, tennis courts, .35 mile paved path) and Nelson Sitting Park (fun playground), 3 minutes to the Sing Sing Kill Greenway (beautiful stroll in the Sing Sing Kill gorge), 3 minutes to Sparta Park (playground, picnic tables and river views), 3 minutes to Richard Wishnie Park (.33 mile paved walkway around a reservoir), 4 minutes from Snowden Avenue Park (fun playground, skate park), 4 minutes to waterfront parks Henry Gourdine and Louis Engel (playgrounds, walking paths, grills, beaches, spray park and more), 4 minutes to Arthur J Jones Park (great playground and small basketball court), 6 minutes to Veteran’s Park (LOTS to do here), 6 minutes to Crawbuckie Park and Nature Preserve (winding trails along the Hudson River in a beautiful setting), and 8 minutes to Cedar Lane Park (dog park, Cedar Lane Arts Center, Organic Community Garden and more). You can see pictures of each park at the links above.
You’re also 12 minutes to 1000-acre nature preserve Teatown Reservation, 4 minutes to the award-winning Ossining Public Library, 3 minutes to the Ossining Rec Center (and indoor pool) and 3 minutes to Main Street (Farmer’s Market and many restaurants, First Village Coffee, Sing Sing Kill Brewery and more), and 4 minutes to the Ossining Train Station.
What about supermarkets? Your about 4 minutes from 3 supermarkets – CTown (in Ossining, great produce!), ACME Markets (Briarcliff) and Stop & Shop (Ossining). You’re 7 minutes from Mrs. Greens (in Briarcliff, generally pricier organic food), 10 minutes from DeCicco (in Millwood, lots of tasty food and tons of craft beers), about 20 minutes from 2 Whole Foods (in Chappaqua and White Plains) and 23 minutes from Trader Joe’s (Hartsdale). Wholesale clubs? BJ’s (in Yorktown) is 20 minutes, Costco in Yonkers is 25 minutes, and Costco in Port Chester is 30 minutes.
What about supermarket delivery to your home (with online purchases)? Whole Foods delivers to Ossining through Amazon Prime. Stop & Shop and Shop Rite both deliver to Ossining, and Instacart offers delivery for many supermarkets, wholesale clubs, pharmacies and more.
Walking to the Ossining Train Station takes under 20 minutes. You’re right around the corner from so much of what the Ossining village has to offer, that much of the above is also an easy walk.
