A rare architectural icon, The Rifton is a masterfully restored stone church originally built in 1876, now transformed into an extraordinary single-family residence with a dedicated gallery/studio/work-from-home wing. Nestled in Ulster Park, just minutes from Kingston, this one-of-a-kind property has garnered international acclaim, with features in Dwell Magazine, Inside+Out Upstate and leading design publications - celebrated for its sensitive preservation and inspired reinvention. Inside, the dramatic great room unfolds beneath soaring 30-foot ceilings, where exposed beams and original rough-hewn stone walls create a breathtaking sense of scale and history. An open wood-fired stone hearth anchors the space, inviting intimate gatherings beneath cathedral proportions. A wall of glass opens to a deck perched in the trees with views stretching toward the Wallkill River - blurring the line between nature, history and modern luxury. The home offers four bedrooms across three floors - two of which are en suite, balancing grandeur with warmth, livability and privacy. A fully renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances provides access to the side yard for al fresco dining. Updated bathrooms introduce modern comfort with a restrained, timeless touch, while details such as a classic clawfoot tub nod to the building's 19th-century origins. An entire wing unfolds as a dramatic, light-filled studio and gallery space, defined by soaring stone walls, exposed beams, and multiple mezzanine levels connected by a striking steel spiral stair. The volume and layout naturally support art installations, exhibitions, workshops, wellness or movement practices, private events, and refined professional use, offering rare flexibility rarely found in a single-family residence. Visually stunning yet highly functional, this extraordinary space allows creativity, hosting, and work to coexist seamlessly -making The Rifton a true destination for artists, educators, and visionaries.
