With its nickname, the house at 16 Chittenden Ave is obliged to the facade facing the river: the location of the windows in the evenings resembles the luminous "face" of Halloween pumpkin. Built in 1925 by engineer Cleveland Walcutt (Cleveland Walcutt), the brick mansion occupies a high point on the cliffs above the Hudson, with spectacular views of Manhattan from above. Inside - finishing in the spirit of the family residences of the Old World: coffered ceilings, stucco moldings and wood panels on the walls.

On three floors there are 12 rooms, among which are six bedrooms and three bathrooms. Five bedrooms were located on the top floor, and four of them, according to the architect's idea (widower with four sons), were initially deprived of doors. On the ground floor - separate apartments. Prior to placing the house for sale, the current owner, interior designer William Spink (William Spink), handed them over. There is also a roof terrace, a balcony, a double garage and a secluded garden.
