Welcome to the Briggs House, an architecturally rich 4-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom residence in the heart of Hyde Park's esteemed Main Street Historic District - an enclave known for its beautifully preserved 19th-century character and heritage.
Given the Neighborhood Core zoning and over half-acre lot, the Town of Hyde Park has verified that two dwelling units are permissible with site plan approval, opening the door to multiple possibilities: create an accessory apartment within the existing structure, convert to a legal two-family residence, or explore a multi-structure layout - all while preserving the home's historic character.
This rare offering is part of a distinguished neighborhood originally home to the town's early shopkeepers, physicians, and skilled artisans, with residences dating from 1840 to 1895. Steeped in local lore, it is said that Eleanor Roosevelt herself attended ladies' Democratic meetings at 14 Main Street during the time it was owned by Harry T. Briggs - adding a remarkable layer of historical significance to an already storied home.
The house carries forward its legacy with grace, featuring nearly 2,800 square feet of living space with original built-ins, a charming butler's pantry, solid wood floors throughout, and a stunning second-story sunroom - perfect for morning coffee or quiet reflection. It is sited on a spacious, landscaped .52-acre triple village lot, framed by mature trees and partial fencing for privacy.
Located just moments from Hyde Park's local shops, restaurants, and cultural landmarks such as the Vanderbilt and Roosevelt estates, and a short drive to Poughkeepsie's Metro-North station, Walkway Over the Hudson, Culinary Institute of America, and Marist College, the Briggs House offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Hudson Valley history - rich in character, full of potential, and ready for its next chapter.
