This home is located on the last northern block of Grand Street, near to the Newburgh Yacht Club and the college. The listing says, “Continue the restoration that was started and bring your HUGE family and make this your new sweet townhome.” It is really hard to see from the photos the restoration that began. All you can really see are awkward layouts that were carved in the house for college housing. However, the house is in a good location and the listing says you can see river views from the top floor. Hopefully the house can convert back to a one family home easily.

It seems like this could be a great house, but the pictures (and I’m sorry to say this) are pretty awful. I’m sure it’s not easy to photograph certain things, but it’s really hard to even tell what one is looking at in these pics. I think a lot of realtors might benefit from a basic photography class.
