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.
