About this property

Set above the shoreline of Appletree Cove, this 1919 Kingston waterfront home reflects a rare balance of enduring charm and thoughtful modernization. The original character remains intact, while meaningful updates have introduced the systems and comforts expected for daily living today. It is a home that feels authentic to its history, yet entirely at ease in the present.From the main living spaces, the view unfolds in layers. The Kingston ferry moves rhythmically in and out of the harbor, the town gathers along the water’s edge, and Mount Baker rises in the distance. The outlook is dynamic without feeling busy, shifting with the light and tides while maintaining a steady sense of calm. The grounds extend across just over an acre, with 149 feet of high bank waterfront. Cottage gardens soften the approach to the home, creating a sense of arrival that feels both curated and natural. A covered patio offers a quiet place to sit with the view throughout the seasons, while a trail leads to the beach below where a bay meets the shoreline. Inside, the home has been carefully updated to support modern living without compromising its character. In-floor hydronic radiant heat brings a quiet, consistent warmth, and electric storm shutters enhance privacy, light management and storm safety. The interiors feel both refined and approachable, with each improvement made in service of longevity and ease. Tucked into a private setting, the home remains remarkably connected. The Kingston ferry
