ATTN Rehabbers: This c.1824 House in Poughkeepsie City Needs Love

  |  June 6, 2017

Poughkeepsie has whole neighborhoods on the National Historic Registry, so we were bound to stumble upon one of these old beauties eventually. Built in the the 1820s, this nearly 7000 square foot Queen Anne Victorian with a mansard roof is dripping in historic details, and there’s so much custom ceiling woodwork with medallions, it’s worth looking at the listing photos just for that alone. Also included: marble fireplaces, inlaid wood floors, and 4 beds/4 baths.

Listed on local/state/national registries of historic homes, this house needs work performed by a skilled rehab specialist, but it’s eligible for New York State historic homeowner rehab tax credits. The seller wants cash for this property, which is being sold as-is. Located on historic Garfield Place, surrounded by other gorgeous and well-maintained/renovated Victorian homes, five minutes from the Poughkeepsie train station on Main Street.
