Step across the sun-warmed front walk, swing open the original door, and feel possibility bloom. Beneath time-worn rugs, early-century hardwood floors wait for their first gleam of daylight. Sunshine pours through tall windows, skimming vintage trim and setting off the solid brass door hardware that clicks shut with reassuring certainty. A welcoming living room flows into a private dining room—perfect for lingering Sunday brunches or spirited game nights. The kitchen already sparkles: crisp white cabinetry, polished granite counters, and easy-care tile underfoot mean you can cook, gather, and celebrate from day one while the rest of the house awakens around you. Upstairs, three thoughtfully sized bedrooms promise peaceful nights and bright mornings, while the full bath stands ready for a complete style reboot—your chance to craft the spa retreat you’ve always imagined. Behind the scenes, the costly essentials are brand-new: high-efficiency heating, whole-house central air, and a bone-dry basement ready for storage, workshop gear, or future flex space. Why you’ll love the location Roughly 70 miles to Manhattan—about 90 minutes by car or a relaxed ride on NJ Transit’s Port Jervis Line A five-minute stroll to Davidge Park for pond-side walks, playground swings, and summer concerts Sidewalk distance to the Paramount Theatre, indie cafés, and Saturday farmers markets Minutes to LEGOLAND New York, pick-your-own orchards, and the Shawangunk Ridge for epic hikes and sunsets Yes, the walls crave fresh color, the floors await their first sanding, and the bathroom begs for reinvention—but the bones are beautiful, the systems are new, and the canvas is entirely yours. Bring your vision, build equity with every brushstroke, and let this Middletown Dutch Colonial become the backdrop for your next chapter.
