Charming Turn-of-the-Century Gem in the Heart of Historic Kingston!
Welcome to 59 W. O'Reilly Street — a beautifully maintained, character-rich home owned by the same family for over 50 years. This spacious turn-of-the-century residence features original woodwork, solid oak doors, period wood windows with storms, stained glass accents, and ornate Victorian-style pop-out windows. These timeless touches blend seamlessly with updates, including fresh paint, new carpeting throughout, high ceilings, and an abundance of natural light. The first floor offers a sun-filled living room that opens to a convenient primary suite with a full bath.
The home includes large bedrooms across the upper floors with new carpet and paint, ample closets, two kitchen pantries, and a walk-up attic ready to finish. A newly built rear porch opens to a functional backyard with off-street parking — a rare find in this neighborhood!
Enjoy modern comfort with a natural gas furnace, central A/C, upgraded 200-amp electric, and excellent insulation for year-round efficiency. The fully dry basement (with exterior side access) offers laundry, workshop potential, and even has a lined chimney for a future wood stove.
Enjoy a newly built porch, off-street parking for two, and a private backyard ideal for gardening, play, or gatherings. Recent updates include a fully lined chimney, a hot water heater (4 years old), and a roof replacement (2010, down to studs/new plywood).
Perfectly located on a hospital/emergency route (priority for snow removal and utilities), this home is minutes from uptown shops, downtown waterfront, festivals, restaurants, and parks. Easy access to Woodstock, Phoenicia, and the Catskills for weekend getaways.
Note: You can keep backyard hens (yes, it's legal here)!
