About This Home
Middletown Gem: Updated Home, Unbeatable Location, Finally Priced Right. Welcome to 70 miles of freedom from NYC with none of the sacrifice. This thoughtfully updated Middletown home sits in one of Orange County's most connected communities, where Metro-North train access and major highway proximity put Manhattan within easy reach while keeping you rooted in the peace and affordability of Hudson Valley living. Solid Foundation, Smart Updates, Move In Ready: This home has the updates that matter most. The kitchen was completely renovated in 2020 with a classic farmhouse sink, quality cabinetry offering ample storage, and finishes that feel clean and current. Hardwood and tile flooring, also updated in 2020, extends throughout the main living areas. These are durable, attractive materials ready to handle daily wear while maintaining their appeal for years to come. Every room benefits from abundant natural light streaming through large windows. The bathroom renovation embraces farmhouse style with modern sensibility, balancing rustic details with practical features that make your daily routine smoother. The separate dining room provides dedicated space for meals that matter, with an elegant chandelier setting the tone. Private Outdoor Living Space: Step outside to discover your fully fenced backyard. The complete fencing provides privacy and security, making it ideal for pets or simply enjoying your morning coffee. Picture summer evenings entertaining friends, spring afternoons gardening, or fall mornings with a good book. Add a fire pit, plant a garden, or simply enjoy the green space as your personal retreat. Location That Works For Your Life: Middletown delivers convenience that transforms daily life. Shopping plazas, diverse restaurants, and entertainment venues are minutes away. Metro-North access and major highways including Route 17 and Interstate 84 provide transportation flexibility whether you're commuting for work or exploring the region. The Honest Truth: This home spent time on the market because it was overpriced. That chapter is over. The price now reflects reality. You're getting a property with legitimate 2020 updates in a highly desirable location at a price point that finally makes financial sense. There's room to add your personal style throughout while building equity from day one. The bones are excellent. The location is proven. The updates are done. The price is fair.
