About this home
Rare Find - Serene Retreat Nestled in Nature on 3+ Private Acres, Just 1 Mile from Uptown Kingston!
Nestled just one mile from the vibrant heart of Uptown Kingston, this rare gem offers the perfect blend of privacy, quality, efficiency and convenience. Designed by an architect and seamlessly built into the hillside, this contemporary home spans over three lush, partially landscaped acres with triple frontage: Lakeview Avenue, Lucas Avenue, and Lakeview Terrace. Set back from the road, it ensures both peace and seclusion while offering a deep connection to nature. Live among the trees, with glimmering seasonal views of Spring Lake and the surrounding mountains—stunning backdrops that provide both privacy and scenic beauty year-round.
A welcoming covered front bluestone porch sets the tone as you enter into an open, airy floor plan that exudes warmth and thoughtful design. The entryway features a coat closet and a convenient half bath before leading into the expansive living, dining, and kitchen area. Oak floors, coffered ceilings, well-planned lighting, and a gas fireplace flanked by custom built-in bookshelves offer both elegance and comfort. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, cherry cabinetry, and a spacious walk-in pantry—ideal for culinary enthusiasts.
A 286-sq-ft lanai off the main living area overlooks lush greenery, creating a peaceful retreat that the current owners have enjoyed for over half the year. On one side of the home, you'll find two spacious en suite bedrooms. On the opposite wing, there is a laundry room with a sink, an additional half bath, and an attached two-car garage.
The fully above-ground lower level is beautifully integrated into the hillside and features its own private entrance through French doors. Inside, you'll find a second kitchen, a spacious family room, a small playroom, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath—including a walk-in tub for added comfort and accessibility. With radiant heat under newly installed commercial-grade flooring, a gas fireplace, and an impressive mechanical room, this level offers both comfort and functionality. Whether used as guest quarters, an office, a gallery, or a creative studio, the space is truly versatile.
For optimal comfort, the home is equipped with a cast-iron Peerless gas boiler, hydronic heating with multiple zones, and central air. Recent updates include solar panels for energy efficiency, a SafeStep Tub with a lifetime warranty, a Bosch Dishwasher, and an Amana ASX 14 4-ton condenser with a variable-speed air handler for enhanced cooling efficiency. The accessible, glow-in-the-dark garden pathway to the lower level adds both charm and safety to the property.
Additional features include an invisible fence for pets, ensuring peace of mind for animal lovers, and an original stone wall that graces the entrance level and continues down to the land below, adding timeless character to the landscape.
This private retreat beautifully balances sophisticated design with everyday livability, all while being just minutes away from Kingston's shops, restaurants, parks, and cultural amenities. Don't miss the opportunity to make this serene oasis your own!...
