Golden Globe and Emmy Award-winning actor Drew Barrymore’s 12-acre Harrison, New York, home is on the market for $4.99 million.
The main building at 19 Winfield Avenue in Westchester County was built in 1747 and the kitchen has been renovated and modernized.
“Renovated to the highest standards, 19 Winfield is a rare piece of heritage where every room has been thoughtfully reimagined for the perfect moment,” the listing says.
Barrymore, host of the daytime talk show “The Drew Barrymore Show,” won a Golden Globe Award for her role as Edith Bouvier Beale on HBO’s “Grey Gardens.” She is also a producer and has published four books, including a memoir.
Compass’ Kori Sassower and Brian K. Lewis are on the list.
What you can expect at your accommodation
The listing says the home has a chalet-style entryway with a limestone fireplace.
The great room has 30-foot-high ceilings and “walls of windows,” filling the space with natural light, according to listing information.
The primary suite has a living room, walk-in closet, two bathrooms, a Juliette balcony, and large windows that wrap around the grounds, allowing natural light to illuminate the room. There are also three family bedrooms, two bathrooms and a finished, livable attic.
The property includes a pool house and separate guest cottage. This pool house is a “tranquil spa-like retreat featuring a living room, bedroom, full bathroom with a timeless bathtub overlooking the grounds, laundry, and a full kitchen.” Guest cottages feature lofts, living rooms, full bathrooms, and kitchens.
The floor plan offers flexibility, with “open spaces flowing between the kitchen, dining room, living room, room, sunny conservatory, cozy family room, spacious living room, and additional gracious entertaining space, all of which are further enhanced by multiple fireplaces, creating a sense of warmth, comfort, and connectedness throughout,” the listing states.
Featuring a gunite heated pool surrounded by wildflower-filled gardens, the listing says it evokes the feel of a secluded northern resort, but the property is near New York City.
This facility is located within the Harrison School District, near Rye, Harrison, and Mamaroneck.
The property is subdivided into five parcels, “creating a unique opportunity to enjoy this estate as one spectacular property or sell additional parcels in the future,” according to the listing.
