628 Hurley Ave

There is something extra special about a home that has stood the test of time, and this sweet farmhouse cottage is no exception. While the tax records list the year built as 1900, the original portion of the home is believed to predate that and is said to have served as housing for the caretakers of a neighboring farm. Over the years, this home has been well cared for by the generations who have lived here, and it shows from the solid condition to the inviting sense of place- making it easy to move right in and start enjoying. Though small in scale, the home lives much larger than you might expect thanks to the usable basement and walk-up attic. The attic offers abundant storage today, along with potential for a useful expansion. A new pellet stove helps keep things toasty through the colder months, while a whole-house fan helps keep the home comfortable in the summer heat. Outside, the fully fenced yard is just the right size--large enough to enjoy, easy to maintain. Mature pear and apple trees add to the Hudson Valley charm, while the sunny exposure creates the perfect setting for gardening. Several maple trees offer the opportunity for tapping each spring, and spectacular sunsets over the Hurley Ridge provide a beautiful backdrop to end your days. Set well back from neighboring homes and partially surrounded by woods, the property feels remarkably private and much larger than its modest acreage. Just minutes from Uptown Kingston, the NYS Thruway, and the historic hamlet of Old Hurley, 628 Hurley Avenue offers the best of both worlds--peaceful country living with the convenience of town just around the corner.
