23 Wintergreen Hill Road, Kingston, NY 12401

Introducing Hemlock Glen - the perfect blend of country charm and laid-back character. This timeless cape has been thoughtfully updated, blending classic details with modern convenience, to create a comfortable home for weekenders and full-time residents alike. And located in the perfect perfect ''town & country'' location, the home sits creekside at the edge of the Bluestone Forest Preserve - providing a sense of rural seclusion, yet is just a short drive to major highways, trains, and all the best that the Hudson Valley has to offer. From the main entry, a light-filled living room invites laid-back gatherings in a cozy setting. A large screened porch extends the living area almost 300sf, and offers a breezy spot for morning coffee or evening entertaining. The heart of the home is the custom kitchen, designed by HGTV-featured designer Jennifer Salvemini. Terrazzo concrete tile floors, custom cabinetry, floating oak wall shelves, and warm white Caesarstone countertops come together in an elevated, cohesive design. While high-end Cafe appliances round out the package. A central island provides additional task space, and also serves as the backing for a banquette nook, wrapped in fluted oak wainscoting. This cozy dining area clearly defines the two spaces, while preserving the open flow. Also on the main level, a recently updated primary suite features new hardwood floors, lighting, and fresh paint. While the en suite bathroom was refreshed with a new vanity, toilet, lighting, and slate stone flooring. Upstairs, two additional large bedrooms sit on either side of a shared vintage bathroom. The home's long list of recent improvements includes a new roof in 2021, heat pump mini splits for central air and heat in 2022, kitchen & dining room gut-renovation in 2023, and a whole-house generator also added in 2023. Outside of the home on 3/4 of an acre, are two detached garages, and a smaller storage shed. Each of the three outbuildings has working electric, with the largest studio/workshop across the street on its own electric run and meter. This 800sf building footprint allows a new owner many possible uses, from work to hobbies or storage. The lot is comprised of parcels on both sides of Wintergreen Hill Rd (a survey map is available), and is encircled in part by a tributary of the Sawkill Creek. This stream flows year-round in varying degrees, providing a scenic backdrop and a refuge for wildlife, including an abundance of local and migrating birds. Just steps from the house, across the small bridge - is access to 29 miles of hiking and mountain biking trails in the adjacent Bluestone Wild Forest (a popular gateway to the magnificent Catskill Preserve). The location is arguably one of the best in the region, just minutes to the junction of Routes 28, 209 & the Thruway (I-87) - and the popular village centers of Kingston, Woodstock, Saugerties, or Rhinebeck are all just a 10-20 min drive from the house. This perfect package checks all the boxes, and is so convenient to all the best of the Hudson Valley & Catskills!
