1880s Solar Powered Victorian House For Sale – Kingston, $272K
Kandy Harris | September 26, 2017
She might look like a rambling old farmhouse…because that’s precisely what it is. This Victorian house for sale, Kingston NY, was originally built in 1880 and includes four bedrooms + 2050 square feet. That’s plenty of room for a big family, and the home is situated in an historic neighborhood close to the Rondout, uptown Kingston, and the I-87 Thruway.
There’s oh-so-much more to this Victorian than its venerable age. The owners poured some serious dough upgrading this old beauty, which now includes natural gas, on-demand hot water and heating, new spray-foam insulation from foundation to rafters, and energy-efficient windows. And, the house comes with new solar panels which generate most of the electricity you’ll need to use, according the listing.
The price can’t be beat, and the home’s neighborhood is one of the nicest in Kingston, populated with other historic homes and buildings. It’s situated on a corner lot across the alleyway from the Wiltwyck Cemetery…insert quip about having quiet neighbors here.
139 Pine Grove Avenue, Kingston (Westwood Metes & Bounds)
