Why New York home for sale has a replica Oval Office

October 12, 2019 By David Aaro

This Hudson Valley home listing is the epitome of “click for a surprise!”

The pictures of the $2.79 million, four-bedroom, five-bathroom home in leafy Wappingers Falls, New York, starts like any other listing on Zillow.

First, you’re greeted with photos of the secluded, 10-acre, wooded lot, its mature trees hiding the property from the world, and a long, circular driveway. You’re drawn in by the towering cathedral ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and sheer size of the almost 10,000-square-foot, open-concept home. The kitchen boasts granite countertops, a double oven and double microwaves.
