Located in the Washington Heights section of Newburgh, just moments from Water Street, this five bedroom property presents a rare opportunity to own in one of the city’s steadily revitalizing neighborhoods. Washington Heights continues to benefit from private reinvestment, restored properties, and the broader growth surrounding Newburgh’s waterfront, dining scene, arts community, and commuter accessibility. Homes nearby have already been renovated, including neighboring properties, making this location especially attractive for buyers looking to capture value before full appreciation takes hold. This home offers exceptional architectural character and strong structural integrity. With great bones and a solid foundation, it is ready for transformation while preserving its original charm. Inside, you’ll find hardwood floors throughout the property, high ceilings that create an open and airy feel, and beautiful original woodwork that speaks to the craftsmanship of its era. The staircase is a standout feature, showcasing detailed wood banisters and dual staircases that lead from the front of the home toward the back kitchen area, offering both functionality and classic design appeal.
The living space is anchored by a striking tile fireplace, adding warmth and character to the home’s main gathering area. The wraparound porch enhances curb appeal and provides inviting outdoor space, while the newly constructed dual porches both upper and lower offer additional exterior living areas and architectural presence. A new roof adds significant value and peace of mind for the next owner.
The backyard is a true bonus for city living spacious, private, and offering lovely mountain views unique to the Newburgh landscape. Outdoor space of this size in this location is a rare find and further increases the property’s potential. This is a true renovation opportunity. The home will require a full kitchen update and cosmetic improvements, but the structure, layout, size, and architectural features make it a standout investment. With five bedrooms and flexible layout options, the property can function as a single family residence, a potential mother daughter setup, or a long term rental investment. The scale of the home combined with its location makes it especially attractive for investors or owner occupants looking to build equity in an emerging pocket of Newburgh. Recently brought to market at a very reasonable price relative to its size, character, and positioning, this property offers room for improvement and strong upside potential. With renovated homes nearby and continued neighborhood enhancement underway, this is an opportunity to invest not just in a home, but in the future growth of Washington Heights.
