Positioned on a prominent corner in historic Newburgh, this circa-1810 Colonial farmhouse offers a rare balance of history, craftsmanship, and livability. Thoughtfully restored over time, the home reflects a deep respect for its original architecture while introducing modern comfort with remarkable restraint. Framed by post-and-rail fencing, mature hemlocks, and… Read More centuries-old black locust trees, the property unfolds like a small country estate tucked quietly within the city. A gracious front porch welcomes you inside, where the home immediately reveals the character of careful, era-conscious preservation. Wide-plank floors retain their original patina; historic doors have been preserved rather than replaced; and original 6 over 6 wavy glass windows have been meticulously reglazed, restored and restrung to their wooden frames. Four fireplaces throughout the home - in the living spaces and bedrooms, each with its original mantel intact. At the center of the home, the sun-filled kitchen balances old-world warmth with intentional modern design. A vintage red AGA range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, steel hood, Waterworks fixtures, soapstone counters, reclaimed cabinetry, copper prep sink, and a radiant heated herringbone brick flooring come together in a space that feels collected, understated, and quietly European in spirit. The great room, with its soaring 10-foot ceilings and graceful bay window, brings a sense of scale and grandeur, the fireplace in the great room has been thoughtfully converted to gas for everyday use without compromising authenticity. Just beyond, a formal parlor introduces the home’s classic proportions and historic charm - while the smallest of the bedrooms offers an ideal setting for an office or studio. Across the center hall, the main level primary bedroom/studio has been thoughtfully updated with a kitchenette, and a beautifully renovated bathroom with soaking tub allows for flexible living arrangements for guests, extended stays, or comfortable single-floor living. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms each feature fireplaces and distinct character - one with dramatic ceiling height and an airy feel, the other functioning comfortably as a second primary suite also with radiant floors. A proper laundry room, generous storage closet, and secondary back staircase add practicality to the layout. Three Dutch doors open directly to the gardens, softening the boundary between indoors and out. Layered hedges, hornbeam privacy walls, japonica, arborvitae, redbuds, and one of the area’s oldest Sousa dogwoods create a landscape that feels established and deeply rooted in place. Though private in feeling, the home remains closely connected to the best of the Hudson Valley. Moments from Downing Park - designed by Frederick Law Olmsted - as well as the waterfront marina, Mount Saint Mary College, and the revitalized Liberty Street corridor, the property sits within one of the Hudson Valley’s most architecturally rich historic neighborhoods. Nearby Beacon and the Metro-North Railroad provide convenient access to Manhattan in just over an hour. Read Less
