Historic Roslyn home was once a stable

A bit of historic Roslyn -- once known as the circa 1870 Eastman Hicks-Marino stable -- is on the market.
Today it is a renovated, updated cottage. The living room has a cathedral ceiling, wood-burning fireplace and wide wood-plank floors that continue through the formal dining room and the farm-style kitchen.
A leftover from its former life as a stable is the hayloft opening atop the living room wall. Now, the loft holds one of the home’s two bedrooms. There is one bathroom.
Cohen says the yard is tiered and features a lawn and brick patio. A new stone wall running from front to back makes the 134-by-59-foot property “very private.”
