This beautiful 4 bed, 3 bath Home near uptown Kingston was designed by prominent architect Charles S. Keefe in the federal colonial style and built for Dr. Mortimer and Carol Downer in 1938. The house is almost totally original to its initial design having only been lived in by the original owners. A wonderful opportunity exists to modernize this home while retaining all the original details. There is a sweeping curved staircase to the second level, generous living room with fireplace, good sized bedrooms and servants quarters. The main bedroom suite has a full bath and two closets. Nice corner lot close to Washington Elementary and there is an attached two car garage with the original doctor's office still intact. Cash offers or construction loans would be most appropriate for this property. This special home is being offered at a reasonable price and is easy to view.
