Convenience, Curb Appeal, Character--14 Mendota Avenue truly has it all! Step into a piece of Rye’s rich history with this enchanting 6-bedroom, 3.1-bath home set on a park-like .30 acre lot and offering approx. 3841 sq ft of timeless charm and character. Believed to be originally built in 1790 as a tavern on Boston Post Road, and relocated to its current magical neighborhood setting in the early 1900s, this stunning colonial style home is oozing with curb appeal and THE most inviting front porch ever! So convenient to all, this home is just a 4 minute walk to downtown Rye's tony shops and restaurants, Metro North, Rye Country Day School and the Apawamis Club yet set in an idyllic side-walked neighborhood where kids ride bikes and shoot hoops in the streets while neighbors gather on porches and patios. The home itself captures the best of all worlds, blending original details—like old growth wide-plank floors, three cozy wood-burning fireplaces, and floor to ceiling doors and windows—with modern living updates required by today’s discerning buyers including the large Kitchen and Family Room combo for everyday living and entertaining, convenient second floor laundry room and large storage room, 2 car garage and updated systems. Truly one of a kind in all the best ways!
