Buyers agents welcome! This Victorian with a River View is a rare find. Sitting high on Washington Heights bluff (AKA “The Heights”) in Newburgh, is a refined and romantic Victorian home with expansive Hudson River views from almost every room. Built in 1887 by Frank Hull, Newburgh’s first newspaper editor, this home has undergone a thoughtful and modern transformation that makes it both historic and modern. Original oak staircase and hardwood floors merge with a beautifully-proportioned main floor with a generous foyer, a bright living room with a fireplace with wood stove insert, a light-filled dining room, and cook's kitchen with new appliances. There is a bathroom with an antique claw-foot tub on the first floor. The main floor opens onto a porch overlooking protected views of the Hudson River and Beacon mountain reminiscent of Hudson River School paintings. On the second floor you have three bedrooms (one currently used as a home office), including a master with a separate windowed office or dressing room offering panoramic river views. The bathroom has been modernized with a new shower/ sink while retaining original fixtures such as an antique radiator and original stained glass windows. There is also a finished attic with two bedrooms and a large unfinished nook that could be a walk-in closet or bath. The original details are in every room: flooring, moldings, doors, hardware, stained glass windows, curved plaster, ceiling medallions, etc. The basement is dry and has a new chest freezer and pantry shelves for food storage. This home sits on a corner lot has a large enclosed yard, a box garden, and a large 2 car garage/shed. Perfect home for working, entertaining or relaxing, with room for everyone. Brand new Bosch dishwasher and oven, updated electric and plumbing and high-efficiency boiler. This home is located in an enchanting, quiet area known as 'The Heights'--filled with engaged and friendly neighbors. It is within walking distance to Newburgh's restaurants, breweries, historic parks, shops, entertainment, and waterfront. An easy commute minutes from I84, I87, 9W and Metro-North, but you won't want to leave. By appointment only. All covid precautions taken. This fine home looks very much as it did back when Frank Hull built it. You can still sit on the porch & enjoy the wide-open view of the Hudson River, just like Mr Hull did.
