O
wn a piece of New York's literary history with this stunning 10,000-square-foot mansion in The Bronx, formerly owned by the late poet Stanley Moss. After being listed for $4.5 million in 2023, the property has been relisted at a discounted price of $3.79 million.

    Located on Independence Avenue in affluent Riverdale, the half-Gothic, half-Colonial Revival home boasts breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the Palisades. The three-story house is in good condition and can easily accommodate updates like central air-conditioning.

    The property's history is steeped in literary significance, with Moss hosting parties for famous writers like Robert Lowell and W.H. Auden. A fellow poet, Greg Miller, who was named a "literary executor" of Moss's will, recalls spending countless hours surrounded by art in the home's study, where much of Moss's poetry was penned.

    The mansion features a grand entrance, parlor with fireplace, large kitchen, living room with glass doors to the veranda and attached greenhouse, two libraries, and nine bedrooms on the second and third floors. A porthole on the third floor offers a postcard view of the George Washington Bridge in Manhattan.

    As Miller describes it, "The views of the Hudson just take your breath away, over and over again." With its rich history and stunning views, this property is a rare opportunity to own a piece of New York's literary heritage.
