Property Description
Low taxes and located in the highly regarded North Colonie School District make this 1.78-acre property a rare find. This 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers 1,666 square feet of character, comfort, and potential.
Outdoor spaces include a covered front porch, large rear deck, and fire pit. A short walk down the hill leads to Salt Kill Stream, adding a scenic natural backdrop. Backing up to the stream also means no development directly behind, creating a surprisingly private setting in a suburban location.
Inside, curated fixtures and custom wallpaper designed by the owner bring a distinctive, artistic touch to the home. Built in 1890 and cared for by only three owners, the property blends timeless charm with everyday livability. With some updates, it can shine as a versatile rental, investment, or inviting owner-occupied retreat.
The acreage, paired with farm zoning, opens the door for creative possibilities—whether expanding the home, adding an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), exploring subdivision, or considering an additional rental structure. Buyers should confirm all future plans with the municipality.
