Welcome to 12 Little John Place — a rare and distinguished solid brick English Colonial set on a beautifully landscaped .40-acre lot in the heart of coveted Gedney Farms, where homes of this caliber and character rarely come to market. Built in 1917 and lovingly maintained by one family for over 20 years, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath home offers the irreplaceable charm and craftsmanship of a landmark era paired with the modern updates today's buyers demand.
Enter through the gracious entry hall to a sun-filled living room with wood burning fireplace, flowing to a formal dining room with beautiful views of the gardens and yard. The modern eat-in chefs kitchen features high-end Thermador appliances and opens directly to the yard — perfect for effortless indoor-outdoor living. A stunning sunroom with French doors to the brick patio completes the first floor, along with a convenient powder room.
Ascend to the second floor where the spacious primary suite impresses with a private sitting room, walk-through dressing room, walk-in closet and beautifully updated primary bath. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath round out the floor. The third floor offers two more bedrooms, a full bath, built-ins and attic storage — ideal as a home office, guest suite or creative space.
The walk-out basement delivers true bonus living — finished rooms, full bath, laundry, workroom and abundant storage with flexibility for a gym, recreation room or au pair suite.
Hardwood floors throughout. Central air. Lawn sprinklers. And the crown jewel — a rare 4-car detached garage with loft, virtually unmatched anywhere in Gedney Farms.
A piece of Hollywood history too: 12 Little John Place served as a filming location for the 1970 Columbia Pictures film "I Never Sang for My Father," starring Gene Hackman and Melvyn Douglas, both Academy Award nominees for their performances.
Walk to Gillie Park tennis courts, baseball fields and playground. Less than a mile to White Plains' world-renowned dining and shopping. Just over 2 miles to the White Plains Metro-North station — 38-minute express service to Grand Central Terminal.
Some homes are just houses. This one is a legacy.
