Swing into serenity: this Goldilocks home near Kingston is “just right”
If your dream home checklist includes charm, space, privacy, and a porch swing, we’ve got a winner for you.
Just north of Kingston sits this delightful 1¾-storey home on a sweet half-acre lot — not too big, not too small, just perfectly Goldilocks-approved. And yes, the porch swing in the main photo is real, fabulous, and waiting for your morning coffee or dramatic sighing sessions while watching the sunset.
Drive on up the paved driveway and you’ll find a double-car garage with bonus parking that fits at least three more vehicles (or a small fleet of tricycles, we don’t judge). The front verandah is giving “come sit a spell” vibes, but let’s head inside.
The spacious foyer welcomes you in and gives you options: formal dining room or oversized kitchen with solid oak cabinets, a pantry, and an island ideal for chopping veggies, mixing cocktails, or awkwardly leaning during family heart-to-hearts.
You’ve got both a living room and a family room, separated by a rustic barn door that adds charm and just the right amount of HGTV flair. And with a gorgeous 3-piece bath (tiled shower alert!) and laundry room featuring a shiplap focal wall on the main floor, you've got real in-law suite potential or simply more space to sprawl.
Upstairs? Three good-sized bedrooms — one with a walk-in closet perfect for your shoe hoard — and another 3-piece bath, this one with a soaker tub and handheld shower, ideal for post-trail bubble baths.
But wait, we’re not done. Step out through the garden doors to the covered back deck: the kind of spot where memories are made, apple pies are cooled, and BBQs turn into mini block parties. You’ve got views of your own apple tree, a concrete pad for grilling or playing, and a partially fenced yard (with underground pet fencing if you’ve got a runner).
Bonus: you’re just steps from the K&P Trail and McMullen Park & Beach, so you can trade screen time for sunshine any day of the week.
It’s character-meets-comfort, with the perfect porch swing to seal the deal. Don’t let this “just right” gem swing away.
