Applications Filed to Demolish Three Homes

On Setpember 9 the CHP will consider an application to demolish 26 Overhill RoadFall is here and it looks like developers are back in the business of tearing down Scarsdale homes.

The agenda for the September 17 meeting of the Committee for Historic Preservation, who considers applications to demolish properties, includes three homes and the pro shop at the Quaker Ridge Golf Club.

The three homes are:

38 Montrose Road built in 1925
26 Overhill Road built in 1908
2A Normandy Lane built in 1961

We drove by 26 Overhill Road, which is a 5 bedroom Colonial built in 1908. The home sits on ¾ acre, an unusua38 Montrose Roadlly large lot. The landscaping is lovely. The listing says, it offers the opportunity of “a potential subdivision allowing two homes to be built (175.2 foot frontage.) It was listed for $1,650,000.

If the CHP clears the way, no doubt this lovely 1908 home will go and be replaced with two new homes.
