About this home
A timeless 1940 Garrison Colonial awaits in one of Peekskill's most beloved neighborhoods. Tucked into Fort Hill on a sprawling half-acre, this meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated home is the kind of place that wraps around you the moment you walk in — happy, inviting, and brimming with charm. Step through the front door and you're greeted by a fantastic three-season sun porch, awash in natural light — the perfect first impression and a favorite spot for morning coffee or evening unwinding. At the heart of the home is a brand-new kitchen built for both function and beauty: stainless steel high-end appliances, quartz countertops, a breakfast bar for casual mornings, and custom cabinetry throughout. A generous work-from-home station tucks seamlessly into the space, making it as practical as it is picture-perfect. Step out from the kitchen onto the large deck, where the backyard becomes an extension of everyday living — perfect for morning coffee, weekend barbecues, or simply soaking in the gardens below. The living room invites you to slow down, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and flanked by built-in cabinets — the kind of room made for both quiet evenings and lively gatherings. Just beyond, the spacious dining room charms with period built-in shelving, a nod to the home's rich 1940s character. Renovated bathrooms bring modern comfort without losing that timeless warmth. With three bedrooms, including the primary bedroom which offers generous proportions, while a walk-up unfinished attic presents wonderful potential for storage or future expansion. Outside, stunning gardens unfold across the property with four-season plantings and blooms, offering color and beauty in every season on a lot that feels both private and expansive. New windows and a new roof provide peace of mind, while natural sunlight pours through every room. And the location can't be beat — just minutes to town, the train, and the waterfront, offering easy access to everything Peekskill and the Hudson River have to offer. A rare find in Fort Hill — meticulously cared for, lovingly updated, and ready to welcome its next chapter.
Fort Hill, located between Downtown Peekskill and the Hudson River waterfront, is a historic and hillside Peekskill neighborhood with river-view streets and a compact, walkable grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around South Street near the Paramount Hudson Valley, where marquee lights, sidewalk patios, and small storefronts set an arts-forward tone. Architectural cues lean toward older frame houses and small multifamily buildings stepping up the slope, with pocket stairways and retaining walls shaping the blocks. The river and the Metro-North line sit below the hill, giving many streets a lookout feel. Community pillars include the Paramount Hudson Valley, the Hudson Valley MOCA, and the Peekskill Brewery.
