Architectural Historian Finds 41 Hampton Road Warrants Preservation
- Details

- Category: Real Estate
Architectural Historian Andrew Dolkart has confirmed what the naked eye can see: a Tudor Revival home at 41 Hampton Road in Fox Meadow meets the criteria for preservation as specified in Scarsdale Village Code.
After developer Eilon Amidor filed an application to demolish the home, Adam Lindenbaum, Chair of the Scarsdale Committee for Historic Preservation, asked expert Dolkart for an opinion on whether the home warranted preservation. Dolkart visited the home on July 14, 2021 and provided a detailed memo about the home’s provenance, history of its owners and the development of Fox Meadow, information on architect W. Stanwood Phillips and the architectural features of the home.
The document clearly demonstrates why the home meets multiple criteria for preservation.
First, architect W. Stanwood Phillips specialized in “revival style homes, especially those based on medieval English Tudor design. He designed homes in Scarsdale and Fieldston and served on the board of architects who designed the Bronx River Parkway.
Phillips was commissioned by merchant Ellis W. Jacobs to design the house, after Jacobs purchased the lot on Hampton Road. The house was one of the earliest in the southern part of Fox Meadow and was one of only three houses on Hampton Road in 1930.
According to Dolkart, the features of the house also make it worthy of preservation including “half-timbered gales with vertical, diagonal, and bowed timbers.’ Brick patterns are ‘masterful and lively, including horizontal, vertical soldier, diagonal, herringbone, parquet, stepped and irregular courses and patterns.”
Dolkart notes “The most talented architects working in revival styles, especially medieval-inspired styles, often provided details that give a sense that the house was centuries old and has either weathered over time or been built with primitive technologies.” He says, 41 Hampton Road exhibits this in “the irregular texture of the heavy roof slates, in the carefully grooved woodwork that Phillips specifically noted on his elevation drawings, in the turned and squared, medievalizing balusters, in the stylized detail of the spandrels, keystone and lintel of the entrance arch, in the gable overhangs with drip pendants etc.”
He also observes that the house has retained its architectural integrity to a very high degree in that “the windows, slate roofing, woodwork, brickwork, and other elements of the building all appear to be original.”
He concludes that the home meets the criteria for preservation in that:
1. The home is the work of a master as it was designed by architect by W. Stanwood Phillips, a noted architect who was “closely involved with creating the character of the Village.
2. The home is the “quintessential Scarsdale home,” and part of the “broad pattern of Scarsdale history.
3. The home embodies the “distinctive characteristics of an English Tudor Revival style house and uses the style “in an extremely creative manner to create a fine example of the middle-class suburban architecture that distinguishes Scarsdale.
In an attempt to defend his client, Miguel Sostre, the architect for the developer, sought to discredit Dolkart’s claims.
He asserted that the development of Fox Meadow was not unique calling in “one of the many in the 1920’s that looked to facilitate relief for wealthy city dwellers.” About W. Stanwood Phillips, who he calls “Stanton” Phillips, Sostre said, “he was one of many architect that built home.contributing to the fabric of Scarsdale.” (direct quote.) He says, “The fact is that there are many Tudor homes in Scarsdale of the same quality as 41 Hampton Road and that 41 Hampton Road is overshadowed by its immediate neighbor.”
In the vote that followed, the five committee members present agreed to hold over the decision until their September meeting when the full committee could be in attendance.

A Mid-Century Modern Home is Reborn on Hampton Road
- Details
- Written by Joanne Wallenstein
- Category: Real Estate
The new landscaping plan and kidney shaped pool at 45 Hampton RoadWhat to do when the house next door is up for sale and sure to be razed by a developer? Buy it yourself. That’s what David Wasserman and his wife Kate Solomon decided when the mid-century modern ranch next door at 45 Hampton Road was for sale.
A developer by trade, Wasserman had experience redeveloping commercial and residential building and converting them into historic sites, rather than tearing them down. Some of his projects include, the Mill Building in Aspen, the Marriott Autograph Hotel in Snowmass, the shops on the south lake in Pasadena., Old Hyde Park Village in Tampa and Hamilton Hall in St Andrew’s. Wasserman had the contacts and the know-how to undertake the renovation.
His wife, Kate Solomon had just completed the sales of her business Babo Botanicals and had the time and energy to undertake this project.
The house was in poor condition but the two sensed that it had great bones and potentially an interesting provenance. They were inspired by the rich history of mid-century modern architecture in Westchester and hoped to inspire others to renovate rather than raze some of this area’s historic properties.
The original mid-century modern home at 45 Hampton RoadThe original home was designed by H. Herbert Lilien and Clarence Lilien Architects and built in 1952. The layout was expansive and Wassserman said, “There was great potential to reset it as an homage to its mid-century heritage. We want to encourage developers and owners to not “give up “ and knock down houses that are interesting and have some architectural redeeming qualities.”
He continued, “Our thought was this is a house that we would build for ourselves with no compromise on sound attenuation, materials, and mechanicals and a design which celebrates the heritage of mid-century modern design in the most up to date and luxurious way - without adding any square footage, respecting and extrapolating from the original design. It would also blend into the Hampton Road aesthetic without being imposing.”
The original house was 4,661 squire feet and sits on over a half acre. Wasserman explained, ”The house was big enough to incorporate a great chefs kitchen , lounge, dining room, game room, library, office, master suite multiple other bedrooms, a guest room, gym and yoga studio, guest suite and a kidney shaped pool. The result, nearing completion, has met and even exceeded our goals.”
Wasserman credits his team for making this a reality.
Crocco family Architects from Westchester led the charge with our input for the statement we hoped to achieve.
Scavone Construction from Eastchester understood that interpretation and executed the renovation

Home Sales in Scarsdale Increase 79% Over Last Year
- Details
- Written by Joanne Wallenstein
- Category: Real Estate
If you’ve read about homes selling at a record pace for prices above asking, here is the evidence that the market is on fire. Sales statistics for the first half of 2021 are out and by all measures it’s a banner year for the region.
The report from Houlihan Lawrence notes that for the second quarter of 2020 the real estate market was effectively closed down due to COVID, so comparisons to this year are somewhat skewed. However, for the second quarter of 2021 in Westchester, Putnam and Duchess Counties overall, the number of listings declined 30-40% year-over-year and pending sales increased from 25-52%. This imbalance of supply and demand caused prices in many areas to increase considerably. In Westchester, the last two years have had the highest median sale price since the previous high of 2007.
In Scarsdale, the number of homes sold in the second quarter rose 82% from 50 in 2020 to 91 in 2021. For the year to date, there were 154 homes sold in 2021 vs. 86 in the first half of 2020, an increase of 79%. In Edgemont, year to date the number of homes sold rose 19% from 31 to 37 homes sold in the first half of 2021.
The median price also rose, reflecting a shortage of inventory. In the first half of 2021, in Edgemont the median price rose 25% from $963,999 to $1,207,900 and in Scarsdale the median price rose 14% from $1,530,000 to $1,745,500.
So if you’re thinking of selling, now’s the time to list your home. And if you’re looking to buy, be ready to make an offer as soon as you see something you like.
