Upstater

Upstater is in Poughkeepsie today, at a c.1900s Victorian that’s super-cute.

Brick steps march up to a brightly colored porch, while the rest of the house is swathed in white siding with multicolored trim.

A stately foyer has a paneled stairwell; a stained-glass window; and a colonnade separating the foyer from the double parlor.

More stained glass arches over a window behind the sofa.

A salmon-tiled fireplace covers most of one wall in this parlor. French doors unfold within a wall of bookshelves.

The dining room has stained glass, too, among a long bank of windows.

The kitchen is a nice-sized galley style, with tons of white cabinets topped with Silestone counters.

A sunroom is currently an artist’s studio.

The primary bedroom is large…

…and has a vintage, lemon/lime-toned bathroom that’s a delight to retro-look lovers.

High ceilings make even this somewhat smaller bedroom seem spacious.

The third bedroom is equally comforting.

The second full bath is also upstairs. It has a black-white theme. The main floor has a half-bath.

The house measures 2,243 square feet and sits on a third of an acre that includes this detached garage.

It’s just 10 minutes from here to the Culinary Institute of America for divine dining. It’s listed for $519,000.
