1 Helena Ave

This classic Gothic cottage, historically known as "The Gingerbread House," is one of the six original cottages built by the Larchmont Manor Company in 1872. The house sits on a beautiful corner lot in one of Westchester's preeminent locations, Larchmont Manor. The whimsical jigsaw detailing, airy porches and bay windows are all architectural hallmarks of the era. With fewer than 20 homes along the shoreline of the pristine 12.6 acre Manor park, The Gingerbread House is quite rare having incomparable water views from nearly every room. In addition, you will find a yard reminiscent of The Secret Garden. Just as the garden is meticulously maintained, the interior of the home is, as well. Original features are maintained and refurbished to perfection. This architectural treasure is one of the most distinctive and recognizable homes in the area and should not be missed.
