Overview

The Palisades Country Store, (aka the General Store), was built about 1830 and is located in the heart of the Palisades historic district. It's an excellent example of Greek Revival architecture, which has been modified through the years with decorative trim on the exterior, beautiful, large stained-glass panels in the front windows, antique cast iron stove, pot belly stove in the great room, an old-style gas lamp and old swing on front porch! In the 1990s a modern addition with vaulted ceilings, skylights and many French doors, was added in the rear. Several petit garden spaces grace the property including one with koi pond. This home has great provenance and character. It feels amazing the minute you walk thru the door! Luxury meets simple, rustic design! Clean and modern. It features beautiful antique wide board pine floors, exposed beams with post & beam design, original antique cupboards and antique marble counter on another - from the days it operated as a store, and all of this is set against a large & bright and open kitchen. The Country Store exudes charm and period detail mixed with modern amenities. Its location is walking distance to the Hudson River thru the Snedens Landing neighborhood, close access to 3,000 acres of park land, boating/marinas in Piermont along with lots of Restaurants, shops and galleries. Golf and tennis are close by too. NYC transportation super close. George Lawrence, who lived in the house next door ( recently sold for close to $2M) and operated the first general store here, opened in the later 1800s. The building has also been used as a grocery store, tavern, printing press, a grain & feed store, a butcher store, ice cream parlor and a part time post office (before the tiny post office across the street opened). Walking distance to The Market, Palisades Community Center, library and NYC transport. 5 minutes to Piermont and a 25-minute drive to NYC. Very special. Nothing Compares!
