Welcome to Rifton — a peaceful hamlet just minutes from the vibrant city of Kingston.
This charming 4-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod-style home offers nearly 1,900 sq. ft. of living space on 3.6 park-like acres with stunning views of Sturgeon Pool. Lovingly maintained by the same family since its construction in 1949, the home exudes warmth, character, and timeless appeal.
The first floor features a bright eat-in kitchen, a full bath, a comfortable bedroom, a formal dining room, and a cozy living room with a wood-burning stove. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms and another full bath, providing ample space for family or guests. Beneath the carpeting, the original hardwood floors have been beautifully preserved, waiting to shine once again.
The full basement offers exciting possibilities — with a large open room perfect for a home office, studio, or recreation space, along with abundant dry storage and convenient access to the attached two-car garage.
Step outside and enjoy your own private oasis. The backyard includes several garden beds, mature shade trees, a peaceful gazebo, and a koi pond. Beyond that, the expansive property features a large manmade pond and direct access to the Swarte Kill River, well known for its smallmouth bass fishing. As an added highlight, the property also includes a deeded right-of-way to Sturgeon Pool, providing direct access to the water's edge for kayaking, fishing, or simply taking in the view.
If you're seeking tranquility, natural beauty, and a home with history and heart — welcome to Rifton.
