Large 2-br Apartment in Historic Waterfront Home

About this property

Morning coffee on the back deck arrives with birdsong, wind chimes and a canopy of tall trees, and the town below feels far away. It is only a short walk.

Inside, the ground floor of a historic Victorian gives you two bedrooms and one bath for up to four, filled with art, antiques and shelves of books you are welcome to browse. A bay window in the kitchen frames a reading nook, the counters hold good cookware, spices and teas, and the nearby mountains show from the kitchen table. An upright piano waits to be played while sunlight moves through the rooms.

Out back, a hammock swings near the bird feeders, with a grill and a table set for dinner under the trees. It feels like eating in a tree house. Later, a big, deep bathtub finishes the day.

Walk down to the Rondout for cafes, a bakery and the path along the Hudson River, where river cruises leave minutes from the door. Uptown Kingston and Broadway are a short drive, Bard College is close, Storm King is under an hour away, and rail trails and waterfall hikes lead into the Catskills. On Saturday, the farmers' market fills the morning with the smell of fresh bread and ripe fruit.
