This wasn't just a house — it was a private sanctuary. Nearly an acre of lush forest. A wrap-around deck. A home theater, a sauna, a hidden cave hideaway. And a creek you could actually hear from the backyard. 96 Old Pascack Road was one of Pearl River's most unique properties, and it sold for $990,000.
Set at the end of a private drive and surrounded by 33 acres of preserved land, this 4,333 square foot home was built for people who want space, privacy, and character — without giving up the convenience of Pearl River's walkable downtown, top-rated schools, and NYC transit access.
The interior features soaring cathedral ceilings, walls of windows flooding the home with natural light, a chef's kitchen flowing into open living space, a private Dolby Atmos home theater, and a spa-like sauna. Outside, a wrap-around deck overlooked the park-like backyard with mature trees, private trails, a tranquil creek, and a gated yard. And it will never be built on — preserved land protects the view permanently.
A $990,000 close on a Pearl River property is a strong signal. Rockland County's inventory remains tight, demand from NYC-area buyers looking for space and commute access is real, and well-priced unique properties are moving. If you're thinking about selling — whether it's a modest ranch or a private retreat — now is a serious time to have that conversation.
This sale proves that buyers are willing to pay a premium for the right property in the right location. Pearl River continues to deliver both.
