Real Estate: Going Up Around Town

There’s lots of activity on Scarsdale’s land use boards and here are a few items that caught our eye this week:

54 Park RoadOn March 14, 2022 the Board of Architectural Review approved a new 6,900 square foot house to replace a similar home that was taken down several years ago at 54 Park Road. See plans here for the house, the landscaping and the property that includes a pool, tennis court and large guest house on the 2.56 acre property.

59 Franklin RoadAt 59 Franklin Road a new 5,689 square foot Colonial will go up on a almost half acre property. The house replaces a split level home that sold for $1,450,000 in December 2021. This was also approved by the Board of Architectural Review on March 14, 2022.

The Fox Meadow Tennis Club has filed an application with the Planning Board for a Special Use Permit, and Site Plan approval to add lighting to 3 paddle tennis courts at 14 Wayside Lane. Currently six of the nine courts have lights, and if approved, the club will add lighting to courts 7, 8 and 9. The plan also proposes netting on the chain link fence and infill plantings directly adjacent to the residential area on Stonehouse Road. The Planning Board will consider the application on March 23, 2022.
