As neighbors we would hated to see such great people move out but being born and raised in Brooklyn, I can understand the pull for them. (and practicality as well)

We love our house, and we also love this other one so much as well. I wish we could own both! This is really turnkey and the city of Beacon is really a great and convenient place to live. You could NEVER afford such a home if you saw it in some pockets in Flatbush near some of the old historic Dutch homesteads because this house there would cost over a million or close! It’s the real deal and has features other homes on the same street do not have like a generous driveway (for that road) and a fantastic well kept, planned garden ready for you to just sit and relax.

As for convenience, man! The Metro North train is a very short 12 min walk (you can drive to a large parking lot if you wanted to and pay only about three friggin dollars to park for 16 hours!!

You could own (read it… O-W-N !!) your home instead of throw all your money down the drain while you live in a hot rented box that takes as long to get to on the broken down trains as it does to get to your fabulous home in the fresh air!

If you have had your fill of the city, which I happen to love as well but can’t afford to own anything in, then check out this once in a lifetime opportunity!

Keep in mind that it could easily be converted into a B&B or 2 family! Just sayin’…..

Here’s the listing: http://www.trulia.com/property/39823491-37-North-Ave-Beacon-NY-12508

There may be two single family Victorians that would be built to resemble the surrounding homes.

The main problem I foresee with that is it will be noisy while they’re building. I went to the meeting to see what this property is all about and I was assured that there is space between my house and next door. I was also pleased to find out that the driveway will be on the other side of the house.

Will it be fugly? Probably. But at least it won’t be a huge McMansion or an apartment complex.

Hope this helps!
