71 Abeel Street, Kingston, NY 12401

The Historic Rondout District is where you find this 3 bedroom circa 1890 two-story home. Located right in the middle of all the action close to the waterfront, restaurants, shopping, marinas & boating, festivities and steep in the history of early Kingston. This house saw early shipping, the D & H Canal, the 'Skillypot' ferry and the building of the famous Wurts Street Suspension Bridge, the site for many movie and TV scenes. In the owner's family since 1940, it has been lovingly maintained and updated throughout the years. The freshly painted interior showcases the beautiful oak floors, french doors and nooks and crannies you find in an older home. Up the front stairs and down the back! The updated kitchen has lots of cabinets and a butcher block breakfast island. The kitchen door leads to an amazing outdoor entertainment area with large deck, covered pavillion with lights and screens, large multi jet hot tub, fire pit, garden area, koi pond and detached 1-car garage/workshop and carport. All completely fenced for privacy and child and pet safety. This double lot backs up to W Union Street and there is enough off street parking for 6 vehicles in addition to the carport and garage. The county records list the house built in 1890, but the owner found a newspaper in a wall cavity when doing rennovation that was dated 1840. You don't want to miss this opportunity to live in the hippest part of Kingston!
