Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Comfortable living at its best in this well-maintained colonial. On a quiet street in the desirable Village of Port Ewen. Close to all the action in the vibrant City of Kingston for shopping, dining, and great coffee shops. Six minutes from the Rondout Waterfront. This home is perfectly situated to much of what makes this area special. The peaceful Heavenly Valley Subdivision leads you to this four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom 1985 Colonial — 2,240 square feet of living space plus a fully finished basement. Hundreds of daffodils bloom in spring and the stunning perennial garden is a 35-year labor of love and it includes a mature fig tree. Perfect for entertaining your guests because two sets of sliding glass doors will lead you to a large rear deck, partially covered by an awning that makes for great relaxation, meals, and entertainment while watching the deer, foxes, rabbits, and turkeys. Pick some lettuce, cucumbers, green beans, and tomatoes from the kitchen garden — rinse them off at the outside spigot and there is your summer salad! Upstairs, you'll find the primary bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and a work or hobby room. Another full bathroom for the other 3 bedrooms. Do you need space for 2 people to work from home? No problem — off the kitchen is an office bonus room. And then behind the 2-car attached garage is a commercial shop that has been operating as a wool and yarn shop. It even has its own entrance. The fully finished basement makes a fantastic computer and playroom for those winter indoor games. All of this is conveniently located 2 hours and 15 minutes from New York City with all that the Hudson Valley has to offer. Close to wineries, the Empire State Trail, farmer's markets, the Hudson River, and the Rondout Creek. Three minutes from Wood and Wheels Fun Center for skating, paintball, and laser tag. Ross Park is only a 4-minute drive for pickle' and baseball, playground, pavilion, and tennis courts. Twenty-five minutes to the popular Village of New Paltz and close to both the Rhinebeck and Poughkeepsie Bridge. The seller never planned on leaving this home and just installed an 1800 KW Generac Generator for any winter storm.
