Following up on yesterday’s post about a beautiful but slightly rundown turn of the century house in Kingston, NY, we thought we’d take a look at what’s on the market in the former state capital.

Please post some recent comps so I can bid half off.
Beautiful exterior. Does it come with your own personal ‘Jeeves?’
