The Committee for Historic Preservation deferred a decision on an application to demolish a historic Tudor home at 41 Hampton Road at their June 29 meeting. The Governor suddenly removed his executive order permitting virtual meetings, catching the committee by surprise. Only four members were present at the in person meeting at Scarsdale Village Hall.

Developer Eilon Amidor applied to raze the home, providing no historic information about it on his application. He argued that the home was set too far back on the property and stood at an elevation of 238 feet above sea level, causing drainage issues for neighbors.

The committee discovered that the Tudor was designed by architect W. Stanwood Phillips whose work included noted homes in Scarsdale and Fieldston. Phillips was an architect for prominent Scarsdale builder Walter J. Collet. He is mentioned in Andrew Dolkart’s 2012 Cultural Resource Survey for the brick and stonework on his facades. The report says, “Other Tudor houses, such as 39 Chesterfield Road (W. Stanwood Phillips, 1931; Figure 3-30) are faced primarily in stone, always laid in a random manner, giving the appearance of stones found rather than carefully cut.” Lindenbaum reported that Phillips work in Scarsdale included homes and a building downtown including, “26 Cushman Road, 4 Colvin Road, 23 Cohawney Road, 38 and 39 Chesterfield Roads, 48 Brewster Road, 20 Dolma Road, 27-33 Tompkins Road and the former HSBC Bank Building on Popham Road that was originally designed as a service station.

Commenting on the house on Hampton Road, CHP Chair Adam Lindenbaum said, “I have driven by –and there are striking features… the slate roof, diamond paned windows and irregular brick patterning. From the curb test and the architect I think that more research is warranted.”

The four members of the board agreed to adjourn the application until their July meeting.

Published: 07 July 2021

If you’ve read about homes selling at a record pace for prices above asking, here is the evidence that the market is on fire. Sales statistics for the first half of 2021 are out and by all measures it’s a banner year for the region.

The report from Houlihan Lawrence notes that for the second quarter of 2020 the real estate market was effectively closed down due to COVID, so comparisons to this year are somewhat skewed. However, for the second quarter of 2021 in Westchester, Putnam and Duchess Counties overall, the number of listings declined 30-40% year-over-year and pending sales increased from 25-52%. This imbalance of supply and demand caused prices in many areas to increase considerably. In Westchester, the last two years have had the highest median sale price since the previous high of 2007.

In Scarsdale, the number of homes sold in the second quarter rose 82% from 50 in 2020 to 91 in 2021. For the year to date, there were 154 homes sold in 2021 vs. 86 in the first half of 2020, an increase of 79%. In Edgemont, year to date the number of homes sold rose 19% from 31 to 37 homes sold in the first half of 2021.

The median price also rose, reflecting a shortage of inventory. In the first half of 2021, in Edgemont the median price rose 25% from $963,999 to $1,207,900 and in Scarsdale the median price rose 14% from $1,530,000 to $1,745,500.

So if you’re thinking of selling, now’s the time to list your home. And if you’re looking to buy, be ready to make an offer as soon as you see something you like.

Published: 24 June 2021

Three homes are the on the agenda for the meeting of the Committee for Historic Preservation on June 29, 2021. If approved, the homes will be demolished.

The addresses are:

-16 Stonehouse Road built in 1953
-41 Hampton Road built in 1930
-19 Ridgedale Road built in 1954

The real estate listing for the 4,82 square foot home at 41 Hampton Road says, “Breathtaking Tudor sits proudly on one of the prettiest, most coveted streets in Fox Meadow. Nestled on .69 acres this exquisite home boasts beautiful grounds, stone patios framed in brick and exquisite architectural details. Enter a richly paneled grand foyer leading directly out to beautiful stone patio and garden. Step down into a magnificent living room with high, carved plaster ceiling anchored by an elegant, limestone fireplace.”

Though the home did not receive an individual designation in Scarsdale’s Cultural Reconnaissance Study, it is sited within the Fox Meadow study area, which the report recommended for preservation. The name of the architect is unknown. The owner is developer Eilon Amidor.

It is next door to 39 Hampton Road. About that house, the survey says, “Three other houses designed by talented architects are of special interest. The quirky Tudor Revival house at 39 Hampton Road was designed in 1929 by New Rochelle-based architect Lorillard Wise, about whom almost nothing is known, despite the fact that he was responsible for several of the finest Tudor Revival houses in Scarsdale. For his Fox Meadow house, Wise employed a sequence of extremely steep gables articulated by straight, curved, and patterned timbers that appear to have been cut with an adz (Figure 7-4-19). The facade is further articulated by leaded casements in diamond and rectangular patterns with inset stained-glass panels."
