8 Sullivan Avenue

Description

Step into a piece of Port Jervis history at 8 Sullivan Ave—a beautifully restored 1880’s Victorian offering over 2,300 square feet of character, charm, and timeless craftsmanship. Set on a quaint city lot along a sidewalk-lined street of similar historic homes, this property blends old-world elegance with everyday livability in a location that truly connects you to it all. A flower-lined walkway leads to the inviting covered front porch, thoughtfully designed with a gentle curve that creates the perfect space to relax, unwind, and take in the neighborhood. From the moment you enter, you’re welcomed by a grand foyer that immediately showcases the home’s original beauty—soaring ceilings, a stunning wraparound wooden staircase, rich hardwood floors, and intricate woodwork that has been carefully preserved. The first floor flows effortlessly from room to room, with large windows filling the home with natural light throughout the day. Pocket doors add both function and architectural interest, while the original decorative fireplace with its detailed wooden mantel serves as a striking focal point. A formal dining room, spacious living room, and additional sitting room provide flexibility for entertaining or everyday living. The kitchen has been tastefully restored, featuring granite countertops, warm wood cabinetry, and a new refrigerator to be installed for the next owner. Just off the kitchen, a secondary back staircase provides convenient access to the second floor—an original feature that adds both charm and functionality. A full bathroom on the main level adds convenience, while the glass-enclosed sunporch—with its stylish chandelier—offers a peaceful retreat overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, you’ll find four well-appointed bedrooms, each with its own unique angles and character, along with a second full bathroom complete with a classic clawfoot soaking tub. A walk-up attic and full basement provide abundant storage and future potential. Throughout the home, original wood doors with vintage hardware, classic radiators in every room, and thoughtfully selected lighting fixtures continue to highlight the home’s historic integrity. Located in the Port Jervis School District and just minutes from downtown, you’ll enjoy easy access to local shops, restaurants, parks, and scenic walking, hiking, and biking trails along the Delaware River. The nearby train offers a convenient commute to NYC, while quick access to Pennsylvania and New Jersey adds to the home’s ideal location—just under two hours from the city. This is more than a home—it’s a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved Victorian in the heart of the Hudson Valley.
