A whimsical brick Italianate in the sought after Rondout neighborhood of Kingston. A former parsonage, the stunning facade has deep, bracketed eaves and is adorned with cornices characteristic of the style and period. The rounded windows are painted a dusty shade of pink, and the covered front porch has fabulously tall ceilings. Tucked behind a perennial garden it makes for a peaceful place to watch the world go by. Inside, the c1863 home has retained much of its original charm with 11 foot ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and a fabulous mix of old & new. The current owner's have done a major renovation. The kitchen has been completely reimagined with unexpected modern, clean lines blended in alongside the historic elements. You'll find a surprising and delightful bright blue ceiling, an old hearth currently used to house a pizza oven, under-counter wine storage and a 48" AGA induction range. The space is large and was designed with entertaining in mind. The light filled double parlor is wonderfully spacious, used as a dining room & living room, each has a fireplace with original marble mantels. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms with an option for a fifth on the first floor. All have fireplaces & each is painted it's own iconic hue of earthy & playful tones. The bathrooms are spa-driven. The primary suite is especially luxe with a sunken, circular soaking tub & separate shower. There is central AC and smart controls. Out back, an iron fence delineates the yard, it is wonderfully private and lush with plants. It is exceptionally large, which is rare for a village home. Sit in the shade under the beautiful cherry trees, or lounge under the pergola overlooking the fountain. There is off street parking, and a short three minute walk takes you to the waterfront & the incredible restaurants that have made Kingston a dining destination. 85 Wurts is rich in history, rich in color, a refreshing take on a historical restoration just 2h north of NYC.
