About this House

Welcome to a truly special piece of Poughkeepsie history. Built in 1877 and set within the Historic District, this striking Victorian residence offers an exceptional opportunity to restore and reimagine a grand historic home while preserving its remarkable architectural character. From the gracious curved staircase and soaring ceilings to original hardwood floors, intricate moldings, pocket and French doors, multiple fireplaces, and a distinctive glass-enclosed cupola, the craftsmanship and scale of this home are rarely found today.

With approximately 4,831 square feet, three levels, 8 plus bedrooms (tax indicate 6), 6 baths (3 full 3 half), a spacious kitchen with cherry cabinetry, granite countertops and multiple work areas, plus a butler's pantry, the possibilities are extensive. A full basement, detached garage, private yard, and rooftop garden area with views add even more potential. Recent improvements provide a foundation for the next chapter, while the property's historic details invite thoughtful restoration.

Whether envisioned as a magnificent private residence, a thoughtfully restored historic property, or another permitted use subject to municipal approval, 8 Garfield Place is an extraordinary opportunity to bring a landmark-quality home back to its full glory.

    "Ok, however im not used to the city. Except theres not a lot of busses. Theyre are busses, just not a lot. So you need a car to get where a short 14min car ride takes over 1 hr to bus or over 2- more hrs to walk some places. Say if this was albany we could catch a bus every 15-20mins 7days a week, pretty much every block and get anywhere you want."

    " I’ve lived here for 10 years and it has been a very safe and enjoyable neighborhood to live in. The schools are very good both public and parochial. There is great access to shopping, groceries and restaurants. There are lots of parks, museums and rail trails in the area. The city also has the walkway over the Hudson which is a great attraction. Access to NYVc is easy and 1:30 minutes on the train with a ride along the Hudson River. Overall the area is safe. The four seasons give a great opportunity to enjoy the holidays. "
