What is the Price of a Vacant Building Lot in Scarsdale?

Building Lot at 12 Butler RoadWe noticed a few empty building lots on the market – waiting for a buyer to build their own home. With lots of home inventory already on the market, and uncertainty about where the real estate market is going, it’s no wonder that builders are hesitating before breaking ground on yet another new house in town. Given the current gas moratorium imposed by Con Edison, who knows how these homes could even be heated.

Take a look at a few lots that, for now, remain as open space:

4 Drake Road: .2471 acres: Level quarter acre accessed by way of stone steps on Drake Road or shared, private drive off Ferncliff. Lot is elevated above the road and feels private. Paved parking. Assessed Value: $812,660. List price: $400,000.

31 Murray Hill Road12 Butler Road: .47 acres at the intersection of Butler and Fox Meadow Roads. Now the site of a beautiful garden. Assessed Value: $398,936. List Price: $999,000

31 Murray Hill Road: .89 acres. Cleared flat lot on Murray Hill Road. This lot already has approved plans for an 8,000 + square foot home or you can modify or design something new. Currently lot has an existing pool. Developer will also build to suit. Assessed Value: $1,515,957. List Price: $3,300,000.... and that's without the house.

What to build? Realtor Mindy Gerstein who has the listing on 31 Murray Hill Road reports that buyers are looking for a new style home. Realtors are calling it “transitional,” which is traditional on the exterior and more contemporary and open on the inside.” It seems that interior walls have gone out of style and informal living is in.
