17 Downs Street, Kingston, NY

About 17 Downs Street

A rare six-unit asset in one of Kingston's most opportunistic zoning transects. 17 Downs Street delivers a strong 8.19 cap rate on a 625,000 ask while sitting in a T5-Neighborhood (T5N) zone built for exactly the kind of upside that's getting harder to find in the Hudson Valley. The unit mix is purpose-built for flexibility: two 2-bedrooms, two 1-bedrooms, and two studios, a spread that lets an owner play multiple tenant profiles -- long-term residential stability in the larger units, premium furnished or transitional rents in the smaller ones. Here's where T5N earns its keep. Kingston's form-based code reserves its full short-term-rental (STR-F) permit type for T4 and T5 transects only -- 17 Downs sits in that eligible band. The same zone is written to encourage a diverse mix of residential building types, general retail, and small to medium-sized neighborhood-supporting commercial uses, putting boutique lodging, live-work, and ground-floor hospitality concepts genuinely on the table for a creative buyer. In a walkable, restaurant-dense city that has become a legitimate Hudson Valley destination, that hospitality optionality is the differentiator -- most multifamily product can't touch it. Built in 1950, with the bones and scale that make Kingston's housing stock so livable, this is a clean opportunity with a second gear for an operator who wants to lean into Kingston's visitor economy.
