This adorable, newly renovated Cape style home (c. 1938) says, "Ahhh, Home Sweet Home" and "Move Right In!" as soon as you drive up. The covered front step and foyer beckon you into gleaming hardwood floors throughout. Well-positioned skylights and windows galore create a home where old-world charm meets an open, fresh, bright new feel. The Living Room is anchored by a lovely brick fireplace and wood mantel. Surprise! There's a windowed bonus space just behind the fireplace. The current owner uses it as an office... a place to meditate, relax and read a book. (It could also be used to expand the downstairs 1/2-bath into a full bath if desired.) The new first-floor bath has great Moroccan tile and a barn door. The nature of this house is expressed as you easily drift through the Living Room, Dining Room and into a stunning new kitchen (open, crisp, white). This is an open "great room" floor plan rarely seen in an older home. There's room for two gourmet cooks in a kitchen with a sink island that faces your guests and keeps you connected... making entertaining a pleasure. An Eat-In nook w/sky light and a door out to a large deck give great access to BBQing and dining al fresco. The deck overlooks an ample and fully fenced lawn. Let the dogs out while you pick tomatoes from your raised-bed gardens. Play badminton or add a hot tub... as there is already electric service available. And what about upstairs? Wind your way up a charming staircase and a continuation of the hardwood floors. There's a large main bedroom that feels enormous under its vaulted and beamed ceiling with a huge, square skylight. A full walk-in closet is also a lucky find. There are 2 more large bedrooms and a full bath with two sinks--two sinks is always a good thing! Each bedroom is oversized with great windows and closets. There's extra storage beneath the deck and house and access through a regular door into a full basement w/laundry and tons more storage. The attached garage steps you right into the kitchen, so dropping off the groceries is a snap. And, the garage has even more room for tools or exercise equipment... or whatever you wish. This house is located in the sought-after Arlington School District. A few feet away from a wonderful luncheon spot and deli. Close to everything Poughkeepsie has to offer and only 1.5 hours from NYC by car or Metro North Train. Updates were made soup-to-nuts in 2017 and include: a tastefully renovated kitchen w/subway tile backsplash and quartz counters; updated baths, new boiler, energy-efficient windows and an upgraded electrical panel, to name a few.
