Built in 1847 & restored over several years, The Catalpa House is an idyllic retreat near the heart of Kingston. The exceptionally light-filled home sits back on a hill amid 1.40 acres of pollinator gardens, woods, & ancient flowering trees. The house & its expertly envisioned interiors is the produ...ct of a long awaited restoration by a family of master artists & a talented group of artisan builders.Meandering pathways & stairs lead up to the home's entrance, which opens to a tiled entry & an expansive living room. The floor is completed with a guest bedroom/library, a half bath, & French doors to one of the three restored porches. Maple stairs lead down to the 1st floor, with an open kitchen & dining area leading out to a stone-walled herb & vegetable garden & a pea-stone courtyard. The 3rd floor has a spacious primary bedroom with an ensuite bath & a large balcony with hand-carved mahogany posts & views of the wooded hills & gardens. A bedroom overlooks the trees & shrubs in the front, & a full bath is also on this level, along with a laundry closet.Craftsmanship & attention to detail is apparent in every facet of The Catalpa House. With some fully restored original windows & preserved wavy glass, others have been enlarged & custom-built to exacting specs. Extra thick glass has been used in the windows & doors to provide adequate insulation without the need for storm windows or screens. The house is filled with natural light from morning till dusk. All the walls are Venetian plaster with artistic curves & arches in many places. Wide plank floors have been masterfully restored with a hand-rubbed, low-luster natural oil finish, & all the beams & posts are either original or solid cherry wood. The kitchen has Fisher Paykel appliances, a Forte stove, polished concrete countertops, & top-quality custom cabinetry.The landscape was planned around the Catalpa trees & centuries-old cottonwood trees, all original to the property & in excellent health. There are raspberry bushes, native grasses, grape vines, roses, pollinator gardens, wildflowers, & bluestone steps & paths mined from the property itself. There is plenty of room to put in an accessory building or convert the existing stone structure, which is in excellent condition & currently serves as a garage, into a living space.Kingston Stockade District is less than 5 minutes away. 20 minutes to Rhinecliff Amtrak & Rhinebeck, a half hour to Poughkeepsie Metro North & 90 minutes to New York City.
