About this home

Nestled in the heart of Poughkeepsie's Southside, the Stonebrae Cottage at 51 Adriance Ave is a storybook stone Colonial with 4,108 square feet of tastefully updated living space, while maintaining its original and unique charm. It's full of Hudson Valley character and ready to welcome its next owners home. Step through the bright, airy foyer into an enormous living area, where gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout. The stunning eat-in kitchen has an oversized center island made for morning coffee and evening gatherings. A more formal sitting room, a convenient half bath, and an oversized dining room set the stage for entertaining. The enclosed three-season room is the perfect transition between indoors and out. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms include a beautifully designed en-suite primary retreat. You'll also find three full baths, a versatile bonus room, a dedicated laundry area, and a private balcony for your morning coffee. The lower level adds flexible bonus space for a home gym, home office, or extra storage. A private driveway and attached garage complete the home. The location is ideal, and just minutes from Northwell Vassar Brothers Medical Center, Vassar College, and Marist College, with easy access to the Poughkeepsie Metro-North station for a direct commute to NYC. The best of the Hudson Valley is right at your doorstep, including the Walkway Over the Hudson, the Culinary Institute of America, and Hyde Park's historic estates. Step into a home where every detail tells a story. Two distinctive front doors welcome you, each still graced with its original manual doorbell, so a friendly turn of the bell still rings out just as it did generations ago. Inside, a hall closet tucked beneath the grand main staircase adds thoughtful, old-world practicality, while a charming back staircase offers the kind of storybook flow that makes everyday life feel a little more special. Multiple fireplaces invite you to gather, linger, and warm the home on cold Hudson Valley evenings. Outside, the heavy stone detailing gives the exterior a timeless, storybook presence that simply can't be replicated. This is a rare opportunity to own a home with genuine craftsmanship, character, and soul.
