Builders Apply to Expand their Footprints at Zoning Board of Appeals
- Details

If you're curious about why some new homes appear to extend to the lot line, are closer to the street than neighboring homes or tower above their neighbors, plan to attend a meeting of the Zoning Board of Appeals at Scarsdale Village Hall. This is the board that listens to pleas from residents and developers for variances from Village building code.
I attended a meeting on October 15 because I was concerned about a large new home going up in my neighborhood. When I arrived I found that the case had been deleted from the agenda – but there were many other interesting appeals so I decided to stay.
The first involved Nicola and Robert Ansell of 30 Murray Hill Road who wished to sell off a piece of their property to construct another home on the site. Historically tax lots 32 and 33 were actually two lots -- and to this day the homeowner pays two tax bills for the property which is 1.7 acres. Their lawyer from Cuddy and Feder maintained that the zoning law that was in force before 1947 would allow for two properties on the site with no minimum lot size requirement. Though current law requires a minimum plot of one acre the Ansells came before the Board of Appeals to create two non-conforming lots, one .9 acres and one of .77 acres. When the Chair suggested they apply to the Planning Board for permission to subdivide the property, the lawyer maintained that the property was already divided and no subdivision was required. However in 1984 previous owners had applied to subdivide and were turned down.
Elaine Petschek, whose home at 86 Mamaroneck Road is adjacent to the property in question said, "The prior owners asked for the same permission and were turned down by the village. If it is permitted my property will be negatively affected. The new owners should have known it did not meet requirements of one acre....we need to be protective of open spaces between houses – that's what makes Scarsdale beautiful. If you grant a variance you are adding to our continued loss of open space."
After much discussion, the decision on the application was held over to the next meeting to give the board time to analyze past and present zoning codes.
The next applicant was asking for a variance to intrude into a setback for a home that had not yet been designed at 20 Brookline Road. Contractor Joseph Daniel was asking for a 10-foot variance into a paper street adjacent to the site to contruct a "more balanced house." He claimed there would be no impact on the community and that the Board routinely grants these variances. Board Member Jeff Watiker asked, "If the house has not been designed, how do you know you need the variance? You are asking for the setback before you design the house." Board Chair George Lindsay said, "The board rarely approves free rein on a 
piece of land."
Several neighbors attended the meeting to voice their objections to the plan. Katherine Crowley said, "I have owned 15 Brookline Road for years. We love the path. It is bucolic and adds charm to the neighborhood. The new house can have an adverse affect on the community if it takes up more space on the lot. This is a substantial request for a 50% greater variance. When they purchased it they knew what was allowed to be built. They don't have plans so they can adjust to the size of the lot that they purchased."
Frank Fee of 2 Beechwood Lane across the street from the new house said, "This board does not approve open ended variances. There is lots of speculation. Lets get more specifics so we can make an informed judgment."
Also on the agenda were Josh Lamberg and Twin Oaks Construction who sought a substantial variance to build a 7,000 square foot home with a 3-car garage on a cul de sac at the end of Bethel Road – which is a bucolic, dead end street off Richbell. The current home is 3,200 square feet and the property is 1.2 acres. The backyard has a steep slope leading down to a stream and the new owner sought to move the home up toward the street so that there would be room for a yard in back.
The existing home meets the setback and is 50 feet from the road and Lamberg sought a variance to move it to 32 feet from the road. Jeff Watiker said, "The current house is 75 feet from property line and there is not much room behind it. You want to build a bigger house and move it forward. You are asking for a very big variance."
A neighbor across the street said, "My name is Robert Freedman and I am selling 3 Bethel Road. I feel privileged to have lived there. It was a private road. The house I lived in was built in 1927-28. We are the third family over 90 years. It is important for the road to look as it does."
The new owner, Josh Lamberg said, "We feel we are bringing value that will build the value of the neighborhood. The back is steep. It's a concern. I have a 4 year old and two six year olds and I want to create a safer environment."
The Board of Appeals held over decisions on the applications at Brookline Road and Bethel Road.

Home Stats Following the Reval Plus This Week's Sales

- Category: Real Estate
Has the tax revaluation affected the sale of Scarsdale homes? It may be too early to tell but a sales report for Scarsdale for the first three quarters of the year gives us an idea of market trends.
Overall, the inventory of homes for sale is 11% higher this year than last – with 107 active listings as of October 10, 2014 as compared to 96 at this time last year.
We looked at the inventory of pricier homes that may have seen a greater impact from the revaluation and see that there is a 50% increase in the number of listings for homes priced at $2.5 million or above over the first three quarters of 2013. Currently there are 48 homes price at $2.5 mm plus while last year there were 32 at this time. However there are 42 pending sales now as compared to 30 at this time last year. Lewis Arlt of Houlihan Lawrence says that "New construction has driven the market. In competition with the new construction, older homes in similar price points may in fact be facing value issues in the minds of buyers. ...New homes sometimes sell even before they are built."
Home sales for all price points are ahead of last year, with 218 homes sold this year to date, compared to 208 from January – October 10, 2013. The average price of a home during this period rose 14.7% from $1,3000,000 to $1,491,000. It should be noted that the reval does not appear to be hurting sales of homes priced from $2.5mm to $5mm as there were 33 sales in this price range in 2014 compared to only 12 in 2013. However, it has been challenging to move the most expensive homes on the market. In the $5mm plus range, only 3 sold this year as compared to 5 in 2013.

Second Thoughts Following a Teardown
- Details
- Written by Joanne Wallenstein
- Category: Real Estate
An empty five-acre lot at 3 Sherbrooke Road in the Heathcote Association is now on the market after the buyer tore down a 7,000 square foot house that dated back to 1902. Records from the Scarsdale Committee for Historic Preservation show that Jonathan and Kristen Korngold of Manhattan received permission to tear down the original house in March 2012. In January 2013 they applied to the Scarsdale Board of Appeals for a Special Use Permit to build an expansive estate whose size exceeded Village code. They received permission to build a new house and pool house and to renovate the guesthouse –which together measured 15,541 square feet, exceeding the maximum permitted coverage of 15,000 square feet. The property also has a har-tru tennis court and swimming pool. The property has now been assessed by the Village at $5,480,000 and is on the market for $6,900,000. Korngold paid $6,500,000 for the original house and the property.
The real estate listing says the building plans for the new house are also for sale – but 
not included in the asking price for the property. Here is the wording from the listing from Julia B. Fee Sothebys:
Outstanding house plans have been approved (and can be purchased separately) for an elegant and expansive Estate Home featuring every imaginable amenity including an indoor basketball/sports court, tennis court, putting green, swimming pool and pool house. A separate 1,200sqft guest cottage/garage, a rarity in Scarsdale, has been grandfathered to the property. Evergreens, beautiful mature specimen trees and naturally wooded surroundings offer privacy, peace and tranquility.
