The Roosevelt House Home | Set in the idyllic Roosevelt Park neighborhood, one of Midtown Kingston's most beloved residential pockets filled with a number of historic homes, 87 Wilson Avenue is a classic Kingston charmer that gracefully blends vintage character, vibrant outdoor living, and creative flexibility. Inside, the home showcases antique crystal glass and brass doorknobs, old-style latched windows, curved archways, corner built-in china cabinets, custom radiator covers, exposed brick, and original hardwood details - a testament to early 20th-century craftsmanship with so much originality thoughtfully preserved over the years. Sunlight filters gently through every room, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Recent improvements include updated custom wood cabinets, granite counters and stainless steel appliances in the kitchen, bathroom remodel, new flooring in the primary bedroom, a removable railing at the top of the stairs designed for ease during furniture installation, new modern light fixtures throughout the home, and plantings of many perennials and berry bushes. The attached garage offers more than functionality - currently used as an artist's studio, it features ample storage, workspace, and distinctive double barn doors, making it equally suited to creative projects or weekend tinkering. Land | Set on a level lot with mature shade trees, the property offers a private backyard perfect for gardening, relaxing, or entertaining. The outdoor space feels like a true extension of the home. The current owners have thoughtfully invested in landscaping that celebrates perennial beauty and ease. A large dewberry bush in the backyard makes for effortless summer foraging, while native perennials bloom in waves throughout the growing season. A spacious wooden deck - partially shaded for comfort - is ideal for alfresco dining and play, complete with an included swing set. A paved driveway provides convenient off-street parking, and the quiet street enhances the sense of calm. Roosevelt Park offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful setting to take the dog out on tree-lined residential streets featuring many historic homes or watching neighbors play in the streets during hot summer days while also just minutes from Kingston's thriving cultural and culinary scenes. Surroundings | You'll enjoy easy access to the Stockade District's boutique shops and restaurants, Broadway's vibrant arts corridor, and the Rondout downtown waterfront. Nature lovers will appreciate proximity to the Ashokan Reservoir and Empire State Trail for biking and kayaking, Forsyth Nature Center, and the Kingston Greenline. Just a short stroll to Loughran Park's pickleball and tennis courts, ballfield, and community green space. Within a short distance, you can enjoy the best of the Hudson Valley - from scenic hikes in the Catskill Mountains, kayaking on the Hudson River, visiting local breweries, farm markets, and cultural gems, and enjoying winter sports at nearby Hunter Mountain and Windham Mountain Club. Nearby towns include Woodstock, Saugerties, Catskill, Rhinebeck, Stone Ridge, Accord, Phoenicia, New Paltz, Hudson, and Red Hook. Roosevelt House is close to I-87 Thruway (~6 miles) and the Rhinecliff Amtrak train station (~15 miles) station provides access to wherever the traveling heart desires. With quick access to New York City (~88 mi), Albany International Airport, and multiple local and regional bus providers, Kingston offers numerous regional and national travel options. Whether you're drawn by the creative energy, the food scene, or the natural beauty, this location offers the perfect balance of accessibility and retreat.
