Colonial in Poughkeepsie’s Arlington Neighborhood: An airy stone porch is just the start.
Jane Anderson | February 13, 2025
Evergreens add beauty throughout the four seasons.
This Colonial in Poughkeepsie’s Arlington neighborhood has a stunning stone porch and a pristine interior.
Built in 1927, the house sits on a picture-perfect parcel dotted with trees. A horseshoe driveway is a bonus.

Afternoon tea delight.
The stone side porch has gorgeous, arched openings.

A surprisingly open concept for the home’s c.1927 construction.
The living room’s fireplace echoes that solid ethos. White oak floors with mahogany inlays add elegance.

A modern pendant light is perfect for the space.
The dining room’s chair-rail molding and paneling add even more to the elegant air of the home.

A good mix of old-fashioned and modern.
Delicate iron hardware accents white cabinetry in the kitchen. White appliances match the cabinets;

Just swivel to wash your hands.
The main-floor half bath is super-petite, with green walls and white wainscoting.

The house is well maintained.
Head up this half-flight, turn left, and continue to the second floor.

The woodwork glows.
We love all the original trimwork around the doors and the staircase. The second flight leads to a third-floor storage space.

Four bedrooms are up here. This one’s got creamy yellow walls.

We love the wall-mounted sink and tile-incorporated soap dishes.
The full bath has gray tile on the walls and around the tub/shower.

Classic sashed windows let in lots of light.
The second bedroom is awash in white, with a beautiful hardwood floor like the first one.

All the colors in the house work well together.
Gray walls dominate this bedroom.

We love the doors in this house, with their glass doorknobs.
The fourth bedroom is slim but beautiful.

This space is good for yoga, a playroom, or guest room.
The third-floor walkup space is carpeted and has skylights…

The skylights are a great touch.
…along with built-in storage….

A reading nook, maybe?
…and organic touches like a brick column and a tongue-and-groove ceiling.

The 1.18-acre property includes a detached, two-car garage and a children’s playset. It’s about a mile and a half to Vassar College from here.
