About 71 Highland Road
Generous in scale and full of thoughtful details, this home offers the complete package--relaxation, fun, and function. The property is meticulously landscaped, from the fabulous hydrangea that brightens the front yard to the ornamental grasses screening the back patio. Located at the end of Highland Road, and bordered by woodlands to the south and farmland to the west, this property is an oasis for summer fun on the deck, in the pool, or lounging on the sunny patio. The current owners had the home built to their specifications, and it shows in the large windows throughout, high ceilings, thoughtful floor plan, and quality materials chosen including hardwood floors in the living areas, carpeted bedrooms, detailed tile installations, and custom stonework. Two levels of living accommodate all your needs. On the main level, the large, open dining room can hold a crowd and is adjacent to a beautiful eat-in kitchen with loads of cabinets, double oven, granite countertops, and slider to the deck. In the living room, a stone fireplace flanked by tall windows is the perfect spot for gazing over the snowy landscape on winter days. There's a convenient powder room for guests, just off the living room. The primary bedroom features a tray ceiling, walk-in closet, and ensuite bathroom with soaking tub and walk-in shower. The two additional bedrooms have vaulted ceilings and windows overlooking the front yard, one with its own ensuite full bathroom. The lower level--with garage access and a walk-out french door to the back patio--is centered around a cozy den for movie watching and games. Off the den is a large office, a utility/laundry room, an unfinished space currently used as a gym, and a newly refinished full bathroom, just steps from the patio doors for easy access to the pool. This bucolic area of Ulster Park is convenient to Kingston's shopping, restaurants, and beautiful waterfront, while Rosendale, New Paltz, and High Falls are all under 20 minutes away. The Shaupeneak Ridge Park is a nearby 790 acre preserve with a lake, scenic views, and hiking trails to explore. Call to book a showing today!
