White Plains, NY Single Family Residence
Welcome to this lovingly maintained 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial located in the highly desirable “Little Farms” neighborhood of White Plains. Built in 1965 and owned by the same remarkable woman since 1980—a renowned zoologist known for her work alongside the late Captain Kangaroo—this home is filled with warmth, history, and character. Step into a classic Colonial layout: to your left, a spacious living room with a gas fireplace (tied to city gas) and sliders to the backyard; to your right, a formal dining room with an original built-in cabinet and crown molding. A cozy den with a separate wet bar setup offers the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining and sits conveniently beside a large eat-in kitchen. While updates may be desired, the kitchen still holds vintage charm with an original stove, simple wood cabinetry, a refrigerator and dishwasher, and a door leading to the backyard. Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a primary suite with a full bath and two large closets. One unique bedroom served as the owner’s personal office—a captivating space showcasing photos of her with exotic animals, celebrities, and even two Emmy Awards - offering a glimpse into an extraordinary life and career. The home’s charm continues outside with flowering bushes, striking trees, and a beautifully manicured side lawn. The backyard space is truly special—featuring a bi-level brick paver patio, a brick grill/fireplace, hints of wisteria, a running fountain and thoughtfully curated plantings that create a peaceful, almost magical setting. Additional highlights to the home include central A/C, a built-in sprinkler system, and a security alarm. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac with only a few neighboring homes, this slice of paradise is just minutes from the vibrant amenities of downtown White Plains. With great bones and timeless appeal, this is a rare opportunity to bring your personal vision to a one-of-a-kind home. Don’t miss the chance to make it your own!
