Some homes embody a history and style that simply can't be recreated, and Downing House is a shining example. This beautifully updated 19th-century Colonial Revival, situated across from the iconic Downing Park, is a rare fusion of timeless charm and modern comfort. Impeccably maintained and thoughtfully modernized, this home is designed for both gracious living and effortless entertaining. Step into a light-filled living and dining area, featuring gleaming oak floors and a cozy wood-burning stove. The fully appointed kitchen seamlessly connects to walk-through spaces, creating a harmonious flow throughout the main level. Additional conveniences include a full bathroom and a practical mudroom. A striking oversized foyer with a craftsman-style staircase leads to the second floor, where you'll find four spacious bedrooms with generous closet space. The full bath on this level boasts an original clawfoot tub, adding a touch of vintage charm. The finished dormer attic is a hidden gem, with sleek lines and serene park views, perfect for an artist's studio, additional bedroom, or creative retreat. Outdoors, the welcoming front porch offers picturesque views of Downing Park, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted (the visionary behind Central Park and Prospect Park). The private backyard features a deck and a fully fenced yard, providing a peaceful outdoor oasis. Whether you're seeking a weekend getaway, exploring short-term rental potential, or envisioning a full-time residence with access to the best of the Hudson Valley, Downing House offers endless possibilities. With upgrades like 200-amp electricity, central air, new plumbing, a tankless hot water system, a renovated kitchen, and new appliances, this residence combines classic character with modern amenities. Ideally located just minutes from premier Hudson Valley attractions such as DIA Beacon, Storm King Art Center, and the Hudson River Waterfront, as well as shopping, dining, and recreation, Downing House is the perfect blend of convenience and charm.
