Property Description
A gracious home at Narrows Overlook atop a bluff, commanding an unexcelled panoramic view of New York Harbor, from the Statue of Liberty to the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge, framing the skyline of Manhattan rising spectacularly from the bay.

not. The plaza of the Verrazzano Bridge is only a few blocks away and you can drive to downtown Manhattan in as little as 25 mins, depending on traffic. This is one of the most interesting sites in the world. Every ship that enters or leaves New York Harbor passes your door, often only a few hundred feet away. Entrance is by long driveway from Sea Gate Road, to a drive which encircles a magnificent weeping white linden dating back over two centuries. Steeped in history, this home offers 5 bedrooms, 4 1/2 bathrooms, formal rooms and endless more memories to be made by its new owners.
