From my wife: Such a special home! I grew our family in this house with our 3 boys and 2 dogs then. Lovely neighbors, plenty of kids to play with and you can wave goodbye from the front porch swing as the kids hop on the bus that picks up out front. I homeschooled for several years using the large downstairs room with built-ins and cabinets that stored all our books, games, and curriculum. It had the best natural lighting We used the fireplace every winter. I especially loved the massive cedar jack and jill closet that connected my boys' rooms. We could store all their clothes and baby gear in there! Having large closets and an attached garage is rare for the older homes in Larchmont, I was glad to have it when this was our home. We had many Christmases spent in this home and so many magical memories of bringing babies home after being born, first birthdays, first days of school, and thousands of diapers changed in the room we used as a nursery that overlooked the water. This is a family home and has an incredibly functional space so don't be fooled by square footage. It is truly a gem!
