CHP Denies Application to Raze 17 Dolma Road
- Details

- Category: Real Estate
Overriding a lukewarm appraisal by the Village’s consultant, the Committee for Historic Preservation voted 6-1 to deny an application to raze a Tudor style home at 17 Dolma Road in Scarsdale at their meeting on January 21, 2025.
In his report, Architectural Historian Andrew Dolkart noted that the home was built by Walter Collett. He called Dolma Road “one of Scarsdale’s finest and most cohesive subdivisions in the Village.” Dubbed the “Webster House,” for its first owner Dr. Leslie Tillotson Webster, the house was designed by the architectural firm of Thompson and Churchill, and unlike some other older homes, it was the work of named architects of the day. The house was one of the more modest on the street and was expanded in 1981 by Rivkin-Weisman architects.
In Dolkart’s reports he says that the house appears to meet one of the criteria for preservation, in that it is representative of the broad pattern of Scarsdale history and built during the peak period of suburban development in the village. However, he didn’t feel that it was one of the strongest candidates for preservation.
Therefore, the CHP’s 6-1 vote to deny the application came as a surprise.
Speaking in defense of the application, architect Miguel Sostre called the house a “bad example” of an English manor style home and later said it was “barely a Tudor.” He claimed that the additions made it unworthy of preservation and said it was too small, had only 8-foot-high ceilings and was not visible from the street. Representing the developer, Alissa Kirk said the 3,500 square foot home was not conducive to expansion and said they planned to build a “stately replacement.”
However, board members felt that some of these same attributes made the house more worthy of preservation.
Amy Lawrence felt that a skillful architect would be able to design an addition that would work with the current home.
Lauren Bender noted that architects Churchill and Thompson were significant at the time and designed the annex to the Gramercy Park Hotel as well as the Art Deco State Tower Building in Syracuse, NY. She agreed with Dolkart's opinion that the home met the criteria for preservation in that it is “representative of the broad pattern of Scarsdale history.”
Jonathan Lerner said that a neighborhood’s small homes can be “more important” and said that some of the details in the architecture of the house were similar to the style of Collett’s own home.
Sheri Geer discussed the siting of the home and mentioned that the front yard placement of the large trees worked well with the home.
Meredith Kent agreed with many of the Board members comments and added that 17 Dolma added to the context of the neighborhood.
CHP Chair Kevin Reed asked Sostre about his qualifications in his responses to Dolkart’s report, and said that he too thought the house met the “broad pattern of development” criteria for preservation.
The lone dissenter was Jack Miller. He said, “The fact that we are discussing this says that this home has so much more going for it than 9 out of 10 of the houses that we review.” However, he felt that the neighborhood already has a mix of new homes, and both restored and hopefully to be restored older homes.
The final vote was 6-1 against the application to demolish the home. Applicants indicated that they may explore other options, even returning to the CHP or the BAR with revised plans to preserve some of the home and siting of the house as allowed by the current code.
Since this home was purchased directly by the developer from the owner and never put on the market, we will never know if a buyer might have been enthusiastic about purchasing the home and doing an interior renovation.
The surprising outcome may be a sign that the Committee for Historic Preservation is more willing than they were before to defend Scarsdale’s historic homes and preserve the tree canopy for future generations. This denial may also send a signal to developers that razing historic homes can be problematic and may give them cause to pause before assuming that applications to demolish these homes will be approved.

41 Wildwood Road is on the market for $4,550,000.Low inventory, high mortgage rates and new rules governing real estate transactions impacted the real estate market in Scarsdale and Edgemont in 2024. As anyone who was looking to buy a home can attest, prices were sky high and there were slim pickings for homeseekers.
In Scarsdale the number of homes sold in 2024 was virtually even with 2023, when 207 homes sold vs. 204 in 2023. This is down from an all time high of 353 homes during the COVID crisis in 2021, and more on par with the 209 homes sold during the financial crisis in 2018.
On the flip side, for sellers, the median home price of a house in Scarsdale climbed 15% in 2024, up to $2,270,000 from $1,981,250 in 2023.
In Edgemont the number of homes sold was down from 2023, with 83 sold in 2023 vs. 67 in 2024, a decline of 19%. However, there too, prices climbed precipitously, going from a median price of $1,350,000 to $1,600,000, an increase of 19%.
Looking ahead to 2025 experts are predicting positive trends in the real estate market due to a strong stock market, a good economy and moderating interest rates.
Commenting on the market, Nancy Chochrek, the Brokerage Manager at Houlihan Lawrence in Scarsdale said, “2024 saw rising prices in Scarsdale due to low inventory and high demand. We expect that demand will remain high in 2025.”
