Property Description
Prominently positioned on a corner directly across from historic Academy Green Park, where towering monuments rise above the sweeping green, the property makes an immediate impression with its columned wraparound porch. Privacy drapes have been reintroduced in keeping with the porch's historic use--even the original tie-back hooks remain. The corner lot provides three entrances, off-street parking for five or more cars, a large backyard rarely found in Uptown Kingston, and an original detached garage ideal for storage or workshop space.
Step through the oversized original paneled doors to soaring ceilings embellished with ornate crown molding, molded plasterwork and original ceiling medallions. Hardwood floors, elaborate millwork, decorative pediments, substantial baseboards, antique hardware and original lighting remain throughout. An extraordinary hand-painted ceiling mural depicting florals and classical figures is paired with a dramatic hand-strung crystal chandelier. Five original fireplaces retain period mantels, marble details and beautifully preserved tilework, including an intricately cast firebox surround.
The spacious first floor lends itself naturally to living and dining spaces alongside the existing retro kitchen. One fireplace room offers potential for a future prep kitchen serving the adjoining entertaining spaces. A laundry room has existing hookups, while a rear room opening to the porch could become an ideal mudroom and everyday entrance. Two staircases connect the floors, including an impressive main staircase with turned balusters and carved newel post.
Upstairs are five bedrooms, including a generously proportioned primary flooded with natural light. Five windows frame a bird's-eye view across the lawns and monuments of Academy Green Park. An adjoining bedroom offers the opportunity to create a spacious primary bath and dressing area while still retaining four additional bedrooms. An unfinished attic with its original cedar closet and a full unfinished basement provide substantial additional storage, project and workshop space. Central air has also been added.
After decades of residential, mixed and professional use, 38 Maiden Lane is ready for its next chapter. Its current commercial status reflects its most recent office occupancy rather than its original design, and a future owner may explore conversion back to residential use with the City of Kingston. Any change of use or occupancy is subject to municipal approval.
Set in the heart of Uptown Kingston's historic Stockade District, the property is minutes from the NYS Thruway and convenient to Woodstock, Saugerties and Hudson. Rough Draft Bar & Books, Stockade Tavern, Le Canard Enchaine, LOLA, the Kingston Farmers Market, galleries, cafés and independent shops are all close at hand--placing Kingston's history and present-day creative energy just outside the door.
