32 Carroll Street

Just one street over from the grand mansions of the Academy Street Historic District, this enchanting Federal-style home beautifully blends timeless character with modern comfort. Original architectural details have been lovingly preserved, while thoughtful updates—such as central air, soy-based spray foam insulation, and new mechanicals—make everyday living a breeze. A golden-hued front door opens to a gracious hallway stretching the length of the home, guiding you straight to the hidden garden that awaits out back. On the main floor, you’ll find a formal living room, a spacious dining area, and a welcoming kitchen that begs for lively gatherings and quiet mornings alike. Up the wooden staircase, three bedrooms and a full bath await—along with the perfect spot to add a second bath, should you wish. Another flight leads you to the vaulted attic, brimming with possibility: a sunlit art studio, playful hideaway, or serene home office. Step through the kitchen door, across the covered porch, and into your private oasis. Lush landscaping, blooms of color, and peaceful stillness create a true secret garden—an escape from the energy of the city, yet right at its heart. And with the Poughkeepsie Metro-North station just minutes away and Vassar Brothers Medical Center only three blocks from your door, convenience is as close as serenity.
