"RAMAPO GLOW" - Lush greenery and a peaceful residential setting welcome you to 10 Linda Drive, a spacious five-bedroom Colonial tucked away on one of Montebello's most desirable streets. Set on three-quarters of an acre with beautiful views toward the Ramapo Mountains, this nearly 3,500-square-foot (4919 SF with basement) home offers the rare combination of privacy, space and convenience—just moments from scenic hiking trails, minutes from the shops, restaurants and charming downtown of Suffern, and only about 35 miles from New York City. Located within the Suffern Central School District, it's a setting that brings together some of the best of Rockland County living.
Inside, sunlight fills the home's generous living spaces. The main level opens to a bright living room centered around a wood-burning fireplace and an oversized dining area overlooking the backyard—an inviting backdrop for both everyday living and large gatherings. Two spacious bedrooms and a full bath are also located on the first floor, creating tremendous flexibility for guests, a home office or comfortable single-level living.
Upstairs, three additional bedrooms offer unusually generous proportions, including an expansive primary suite added as part of a thoughtful second-floor expansion approximately 15 years ago. Abundant closets, a walk-in attic and additional storage above the two-car garage provide plenty of room beyond the home’s already substantial footprint.
Downstairs, a sprawling recreation level offers even more possibilities, with space for a gym, media room, studio, playroom or home office. Outside, a shaded front porch provides the perfect perch to take in the changing light over the Ramapo Mountains, where spectacular sunsets paint the western sky and give the home a sense of place that is distinctly Montebello. The deep, private property is surrounded by mature greenery, creating a peaceful backdrop in every season.
Perhaps most compelling is the opportunity still ahead. With a substantial home already in place on a beautiful three-quarter-acre parcel, 10 Linda offers tremendous potential to expand, reimagine and create something even more special over time.
Here, the Ramapo Mountains are your backdrop, spectacular sunsets mark the end of the day, and some of the Hudson Valley's best hiking is practically at your doorstep—yet New York City is only about 35 miles away. It's a setting that feels worlds away without ever being far from anything. With space to live now, land to grow into, and a location that is nearly impossible to replicate, 10 Linda Drive is more than a home—it's an opportunity to create something truly special in one of Montebello's most beautiful settings.
According to Richard O'Donnell, based on current asking price, this property is over assessed by 30.35% and is a candidate for tax grievance, which could reduce taxes to approximately $17,173.
