Be close to all the action in this quirky historic home. With Vassar College in walking distance, there is so much to do! This is the perfect spot for friends, families, and couples who want to explore the area and enjoy hiking, local wineries, breweries, restaurants, shopping, the Culinary Institute, Marist, the walkway over the Hudson, and downtown. Poughkeepsie is midway between New York City and the state capital of Albany, and is accessible via car as well as public transit (Metro-North). Vassar Cottage is a historic house that offers modern amenities, such as super-fast 100 megabit fiber internet & WiFi, and a dishwasher. The ground floor features a spacious living room and formal dining room alongside a full kitchen. The fully equipped kitchen will serve you well whether you want to cook up a holiday feast or a quick snack, and the dishwasher will help with the cleanup when you're done. The laundry room, which includes a washer and dryer, is also on the ground floor. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms with Queen beds and a fourth bedroom with a single bed. Each room has a bookshelf with plenty of books (mostly classics) to read. The full bathroom is also on the second floor. We love our historic home! The kitchen offers modern amenities alongside quirks such as a 90-year-old original hardwood floor. There is space in the driveway for 2 cars to fit comfortably (in tandem). The front porch is great for people watching or relaxing with a book and a glass of wine.
