Steps from the historic heart of the Stockade District, 79 St. James Street represents a rare and remarkable chance to craft a custom single-family lifestyle in Kingston's most sought-after neighborhood. While this character-rich property has spent recent years serving as a quiet professional space, its bones, soaring ceilings, and elegant proportions are undeniably those of a proud, classic Kingston home.

Inside, you will find generous room sizes, preserved historic architectural details, and a flowing layout that effortlessly lends itself to a grand residential layout. To complete the transition back to a single-family masterpiece, a brand-new kitchen will need to be added--giving you the ultimate opportunity to design your dream culinary space from scratch, choosing your own high-end finishes, cabinetry, and appliances rather than paying for a previous owner's old renovation.

Why It's a Standout Value:

Brand-New Roof: Rest easy knowing the seller is installing a brand-new roof prior to closing, fully included in the list price.

Prime Location: Enjoy unbeatable walkability to Uptown's premier dining, vibrant coffee shops, farmers markets, and the historic Ulster County hub.

If you've been searching for an authentic architectural gem to customize into your ultimate Uptown residence, this is the historic canvas you've been waiting for. Bring your contractor, your designer, and your vision.
