Home Details for 500 Hardscrabble Road

Stylishly reimagined by two New York fashion VIPs, this sophisticated 1905 Colonial blends modern luxury with the home’s original integrity, grandeur and charm. Tucked away on Hardscrabble Road, the serene sanctuary---a highlight of the New Castle Historical Society house tour—offers a Martha Baker-designed landscape, close to an acre, comprising woodlands, curated boxwoods, flowering dogwoods and a rose-trimmed garden fence. A rustic pergola leads to a freeform Gunite pool, while an original stone chapel—now a meditation space or poolside cabana-- has been rebuilt with a new cedar roof. The updated 4-bedroom home features custom millwork, wainscoting, and three wood-burning fireplaces. Interiors by Foley & Cox and designer Libby Cameron, offer refined comfort and timeless elegance. The kitchen centers around a hand-mitered Carrara marble island, with top-tier appliances and bespoke fittings. Radiant-heated, hand-hewn walnut floors extend through the kitchen, family room and first-floor ensuite bedroom. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a carved fireplace mantel, custom closets and French doors to a private balcony. A skylit, mid-century-inspired third floor serves as a spacious luxe home office. Two lower level walk out areas offer a large additional sun filled family room with built-ins, full bath, multiple rooms for flexible use including tv/den with full bath that encompasses 2305 additional square feet. Located in the coveted Chappaqua school district, it’s minutes to the Saw Mill Parkway and Chappaqua Metro-North.
