Set back from the street front and neighboring homes, the charming clapboard facade and sunburst portico welcome the westerly glow. A bluestone path leads through a picket fence and lush garden, to the entry door, adorned by an antique brass knocker and flanked by transom windows.
Inside, sunshine cascades across the original hardwood floors, connecting the living, dining and kitchen spaces on this level. The front parlor features a rich wood mantle, antique light fixtures, and reclaimed wood chair rail and lower-wall trim. Tucked down a hallway between the living room and stairwell, you'll find beautiful custom built-in storage - and a private powder room.
The dining room features a second decorative fireplace with wood mantle, antique chandelier & wall sconces, and reclaimed wood wainscoting walls with plate rail. This room flows conveniently into the well-equipped kitchen, that spans the back section of the house.
In addition to custom millwork providing ample storage, the kitchen also features marble countertops, subway tile backsplash, designer lighting, and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen also provides access to both the lower-level with laundry and utilities, and the rear patio.
Upstairs in the home are two large bedrooms, each with vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and an array of windows. These bedrooms also both feature reclaimed wall wainscoting and window trim, in designer colors from Benjamin Moore. Original hardwood floors continue throughout this level, with classic b&w decorative tile in the large shared bathroom. The bathroom also features a cast iron clawfoot tub, original built-in storage with concealed laundry chute, and antique trough sink with double-faucets.
A fenced pathway alongside the house leads to the back section of yard, where an 8 foot cedar privacy fence provides an inner-city oasis.
Here, there are garden beds, established ornamental trees, and a custom shed for outdoor storage.
The backyard also features a pea gravel area for outdoor gathering and entertaining.
In addition to being one of the finest and most notable historic restorations in town - this home has ideal access, including prime walkability to both the Uptown Stockade and Midtown Broadway corridor. Just around the corner is popular coffee shop and cafe, Camp Kingston - as well as neighboring microbrewery, Keegan Ales. While the weekly uptown Farmers Market is just a half mile away.
The impeccably-restored Clinton Carriage is a rare offering - combining historic elegance with modern living, in the heart of vibrant uptown Kingston.
