This is the one you've been waiting for.
A stunning 1906 Craftsman on one of the most charming streets in Kingston, rebuilt from the studs with its soul intact.
Two blocks from Uptown Kingston's Stockade District, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been lovingly restored with original details intact: Craftsman woodwork, plaster walls skim-coated smooth, and original heart pine floors in the attic. Around them, everything is new.
The first floor opens from a lofted entry vestibule into period-correct living and dining rooms, then to a brand new kitchen rebuilt around Samsung Bespoke appliances and custom cabinetry, featuring a hand-crafted trestle table built for the space that stays with the home.
A new half bath sits off the kitchen, its walls in fluted Calacatta tile. Adjacent is a coffee nook with a bar sink and additional counter space and cabinetry. Glass doors walk out to a new deck and a private backyard with a bluestone patio, offering serene moments in nature just minutes away from the vibrant Stockade district.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and two entirely new full baths. The primary bedroom has an ensuite wrapped in two full walls of sage herringbone tile surrounding a fluted soaking tub, matching fluted vanity, heated floors, and a built-in wardrobe. The second full bath is compact and exact: floor-to-ceiling fluted tile, a black grid-framed rainfall shower, a wall-hung toilet with concealed tank, and pebble mosaic underfoot.
Two bedrooms have built-in closets. The third holds a hand-painted mural of the Catskills rising across two walls, the original corner cabinet painted seamlessly into the range.
The systems are all new: ducted Mitsubishi high-efficiency heating and cooling, high-efficiency hot water, roof four years young, and a private off-street parking space with dedicated power for an Airstream or EV. Nothing here is deferred.
Less than two hours from Manhattan and a few blocks away from Rough Draft, The Kinsley and all the boutique restaurants, galleries and shops that make the Stockade District one of the Hudson Valley's most sought-after neighborhoods -- and the only house in it you won't have to renovate.
