Curb appeal abounds with this well-maintained two-story home located in the heart of Kingston. From the inviting front stone patio to the backyard custom pavers, this property is truly a standout. Step inside to a welcoming foyer that flows into a spacious living area, dining room, and a lovely eat-in kitchen. The open layout is enhanced by hardwood floors and high ceilings throughout. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with granite countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a center island, and ample cabinet storage—making it the true focal point of the home and perfect for entertaining family/guests with easy access to the backyard. The first floor also offers a convenient half bath with washer and dryer. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms with ample closet space, plus an additional room ideal for a nursery or home office. A full updated bath completes the second floor. A walk-up attic provides even more storage, and the partially finished basement adds flexibility. Outside, the main highlight awaits—your own private retreat featuring a heated saltwater inground pool, fully fenced for privacy and relaxation. A detached one-car garage provides extra storage for your car or outside toys. Enjoy the ease of municipal water, sewer, and natural gas. Located just 5 minutes from both Uptown's historic Stockade District and the vibrant Downtown Kingston Waterfront, this home truly has it all. Don't miss the opportunity to make it your own!
