Description

A RARE FIND FOR LOVERS OF OLD HOMES! HISTORIC 1810 COLONIAL IN NEW KINGSTON ON .42 ACRES. Step back in time with this charming early Catskills home, rich in original character and historic detail. Located in New Kingston, within the Town of Middletown—one of Delaware County’s oldest townships, incorporated in 1789—this property offers a wonderful opportunity to own a piece of local history. Much of the home's original character remains intact, from its original hardwood floors and antique doors to solid-slab wood interior walls, open-beamed ceilings, and charming six-lite windows with traditional muntins. The first floor features an open kitchen and living area, a separate formal dining room, entry foyer, full bath, and laundry/utility room. Upstairs, a spacious landing connects three generously sized bedrooms, with room to add a second bathroom if desired. A covered porch and small deck overlook the generous backyard, where a tributary of Plattekill Stream meanders along the lower property line. New Kingston now benefits from municipal septic service but the property will require a new well, as the original hand-dug well is no longer operational. For old-house enthusiasts seeking a distinctive Catskills retreat or a full-time home, this is an appealing opportunity to bring new life to a property with more than two centuries of history. Charming, full of potential, and priced to sell!
