79 Ann Street

Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, this distinctive Newburgh home pairs the character of an old house with the ease of a fully updated one. Set just around the corner from Liberty Street, 79 Ann offers four legal levels of living space, three bedrooms, two full baths, generous living and entertaining spaces, and a surprisingly deep backyard with a separate heated and insulated studio.

The main level centers around a new kitchen with Corian counters, warm wood cabinetry, and Smeg appliances, opening to a spacious dining area and practical rear mudroom. Upstairs, the parlor level offers two large living rooms, a full bath and an enclosed rear porch overlooking the garden. Two bedrooms and a second full bath occupy the next floor, while the top level is a spacious legal bedroom beneath the roofline, with wide-plank floors and exposed historic details.

Throughout the house, the renovation has retained the things worth keeping: original wood floors, staircases, radiators, moulding, doors and architectural quirks sit comfortably alongside new kitchens, baths and mechanical improvements. A new roof adds another significant recent upgrade.

Outside, the long backyard has room to dine and garden. A path leads to a detached insulated and heated studio ideal for an office, workshop, art space or year-round creative retreat.

Just steps from Liberty Street and close to Newburgh's restaurants, cafés, historic sites and waterfront, this is a house with considerably more behind its front door than first meets the eye.
