View Master

There's nothing like a sweeping view of the Hudson, and this house has it in spades. The home is pretty standard 90's contemporary and the recent renovations are high-end but standard '07. What makes this listing noteworthy is great flow, lots of light, and oodles of big windows framing truly stunning views. Located on .93 of an acre in Croton, the 4,210 square foot contemporary has 4 bedrooms. A major con--and the probable reason for the relatively reasonable asking price--are the annual taxes: A whopping $32,057. Yikes! Compare that to the mere $7,000 taxes of the 5,300 square foot former opera house for $2,350,000. Perhaps you can think of it as just $87.50 a day for great views of the Hudson. $1,650,000

Who pays 32K in taxes?? Even if the price is decent, that is so much to pay every year! But those are some killer views. Can you get views like this in Croton for less or do you have to spend this much?
