Beautifully situated in a lovely Highland neighborhood, this raised ranch home offers warmth, space, and incredible potential in one of the Hudson Valley's most desirable commuter locations. Featuring hardwood floors, an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and modern cabinetry, comfortable bedrooms, and bright living spaces filled with natural light, the home provides a flexible layout ideal for everyday living. Conveniently located near Vassar Brothers Medical Center, the Mid-Hudson Bridge, Route 9W, Route 44/55, Metro-North, and Amtrak, with close proximity to local coffee shops, restaurants, wineries, breweries, orchards, hiking trails, the Hudson Valley Rail Trail, Walkway Over the Hudson, and the vibrant nearby communities of New Paltz, Beacon, and Poughkeepsie. The lower level has been professionally waterproofed following prior water intrusion and will require TLC and finishing by the next owner, creating an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to build equity and personalize the space. Due to condition of the lower level, the property will likely not qualify for FHA or VA financing.
