199 Pearl Street, Kingston, NY 12401

Eureka! Welcome to this splendid Uptown Kingston home (circa 1860). Graciousness that provides the ultimate location and space for every need. The moment you step through the front door you are home. What welcomes you home? A charming wood-burning fireplace and hearth, oversized windows, 9 ft ceilings, and a ton of natural light. It’s easy to relax because each room is bright and inviting. Great flow with hardwood floors throughout make this a terrific, comfortable home—a secluded quiet oasis where one can reflect, or throw a heck of a big party! The dining area is adjacent to the mega-kitchen that features a huge island with bar seating, an adorable eat-in breakfast nook, and French doors out to a large back deck and fabulous new privacy-fenced yard. This peaceful back yard has plenty of space for dogs, dining al fresco, gardening, or a game of badminton. And, because all this is just off the kitchen—which has tons of alder wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and easy access to the deck—it's so easy to entertain, barbecue, or lounge with friends and neighbors. Inside is outside, and outside is in! The first floor also has a renovated full bath off the den with a lovely tile mosaic glass shower stall and delicious heated floors. There's a huge laundry room with brand new smart appliances and a utility sink. Perhaps you'll use this extra room to grow. Or, how about a sun room, office, or greenhouse for herbs and plants. The den is warm and inviting, and the gas fireplace says “cozy, cozy, cozy”! Its separate side entrance even offers in-home office options, or a space for whatever you can dream—den, yoga or art studio, or play space. Upstairs are 3+ large bedrooms with new energy-efficient windows. Wend upstairs to a lovely landing. An oversized main bedroom has 2 walk-in closets. Another bedroom includes a connected room, that is currently being used as an office, but could be a huge main suite, exercise room, a convenient playroom—or throw some bunk beds in for additional guests. The full bath on this level also keeps your feet toasty warm thanks to radiant floors. Each floor has splits for A/C and heat. This unique property includes an oversized 2-car garage (storage galore!) with convenient access to the back yard and house through a lovely wooden side gate. A long, paved driveway accommodates guests with added off-street parking when needed. This is the best spot in Kingston. Just a few short blocks to everything Uptown has to offer! Enjoy a cappuccino at Rough Draft. (The only crossroad in the United States with a stone house on every corner!). How about dinner and drinks at Le Canard (marvelous French food!). A short distance away is Forsyth Nature Park (pool, tennis courts, and great play areas). Choose from 20 different restaurants and shops. There’s even a new Food Co-Op coming just a few streets away. Close to the library, gallery openings, the Center For Photography, and the Rondout. Stay home and write a book, or go out and enjoy the Hudson Valley whenever the spirit moves you. Minutes to Trailways bus line, and a 15 min. drive to the Rhinecliff train station. Getting to and from NYC is a snap. This is a move-in-and-enjoy scenario! Your back and front yards have magnificent mature perennial flowers, bushes, and trees. You’ll think you're in a secret section of the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. Come and enjoy! A pleasure to show.
