57 Rondout HBR Port Ewen, NY 12466

Drive past the historic Wurts Street Bridge into the elegant Rondout Harbor community. Pass the clubhouse and sparkling inground pool, then head straight to the door of this exceptional end-unit condominium. Those committed to the ease of townhouse living will appreciate how the grounds, facilities and exteriors are impeccably maintained. The prime position of this townhome - at front end of last building on no-outlet road - enhances the quiet, light and absolute splendor of unobstructed waterfront vistas. To the left, view huge skies with marinas and the Kingston Rail Trestle. To the right lies Kingston's charming Rondout District with its towering steeples and historic buildings, not to mention cafes and shops. The view widens seasonally to the Wurts Street suspension bridge. And don't forget all the birds and boats and passersby to watch in-between. All visible from your choice of downstairs patio, main-level balcony or upstairs bedroom. These extraordinary views heal the spirit. Combined with the expansive light-filled interiors and the utmost convenience of this location, many may consider owning a townhome for the first time. The property offers three levels of living space, all freshly painted and scrubbed clean, ready to make your own. The kitchen with pantry is to the left upon entering with a half bath off the hallway. The open floor plan of living and dining areas - with vaulted ceiling, skylight and woodburning fireplace - provides a loft-like feeling and welcoming space for gatherings or relaxing alone. Access the balcony through sliding doors. A powered retractable awning gives needed protection from the sun on the warmest of summer days. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms. The full en-suite bath has a separate entry from hallway. The lower level offers a utility room with sink and laundry facilities, a full bath with Kohler whirlpool tub and a sizable bonus room with so many possibilities: think studio, office, gym, playroom, additional sleeping quarters, media room, you name it. The patio outside is lined with lilac bushes, a tall Japanese maple, black-eyed susans and flowering vines. Then there's the convenience of the location. Well under two-hour drive to George Washington Bridge. 10 minutes to Kingston bus station, NYS Thruway and Kingston Point Beach. 20 minutes to Woodstock's Village Green, Rhinecliff's AMTRAK station and the attractions of New Paltz. 30 minutes to Poughkeepsie's Metro North and the Kerhamptons in the other direction. No more than an hour to local ski resorts. Translation: easy access to all the Hudson Valley has to offer. Don't let this one pass you by!
