A dream location and epic character, all meticulously maintained: This stately Victorian on one of Kingston's most extraordinary streets, tree-canopied Presidents Place, is updated, tight and close to all the action on the Rondout waterfront, but it still evokes an earlier era. Approached from a 90-square-foot (!) bluestone paver, then the picture-perfect front porch, the first unforgettable moment inside this house is the never-painted paneled vestibule, foyer and grand staircase. And from there, it only gets better. The living room features original stained-glass windows, working pocket doors, 9-foot ceilings, and, beyond, a spacious dining room opening through French doors to a sunny deck and wrought-ironed fenced backyard. The kitchen is fully renovated and includes a ground-floor half bathroom, but the original floor-to-ceiling china cupboard and other details remain. Upstairs are three unusually large bedrooms, a sleekly renovated full bathroom, plus a roomy office. A grand walk-up attic, ready for finishing, is sunny and spacious, thanks to the home's rare oversized corner dormer window. Recent improvements include a complete exterior paint job in summer 2019. This is a unique opportunity to live in a prime house on a sought-after street, 2 hours by car from Midtown Manhattan and minutes by foot from all the restaurants, galleries, festivals and boat and kayak launches that have made the Kingston Rondout one of the Hudson Valley's hottest neighborhoods.
