About this property

#1232 Central Montgomery County - Utterly classic Greek Revival home, 3690 ft2 and it sits on a small knoll with a pass-thru drive, big old maples in front. White vinyl siding and dark steel roofing, both of which appear as new. There are 6.5 surveyed acres here with a 4 acre field of gravel soils (not recently cropped for it would qualify as organic). These soils are suitable for any crop that can be grown in the area. The property is a low elevation so it is naturally somewhat warmer here and has a slightly longer growing season than most country homes do. A corner lot, there is over 1000' of frontage on 2 roads. It has huge open interior rooms with oak floors on the main level, newer thermo-paned windows, new septic, new electric entrance (200amp) with 2 sub panels. Drywall is throughout and is recent. Yes, there is high speed internet. The previous owner was an Amish father/son, each with their own families, so it was used back then as a 2 family. Not any longer. The father''s side has been updated the most, with new wiring and plumbing. There is a living room/dining room/kitchen area plus a single bedroom downstairs, along with a full (new) bath. Upstairs is a large bedroom and a large attic space, which could new easily converted to more living space if you felt there was a need. The son's side has had updates to wiring and plumbing, but they are not completed. All materials to finish this are included. It has an even larger living room/ dining room/ kitchen, L-shaped. Downstairs in this section is a bedroom, a newly finished mud room, and a very large cement-floored room which is used as a shop now - it would be suitable for adding a sauna, hot tub, billiards - lots of space for your imagination to play around with. There is a not fully-completed but functional full bathroom here as well. Upstairs are three bedrooms with a sitting room. One of the bedrooms is especially large. You can simply walk from one side to the other, no need to go outside, so it would be super easy to make it one-family again. There are 2 large basements, connected by a crawlspace. Heat is from higher efficiency cast iron wood stoves and, yes, the home has been insulated. Water is from a perfectly good drilled well but for daily use they do as the Amish did and use a gravity fed spring, which is on a neighbor's land. All appliances, wood stoves are included and the owner can add any of his furnishings that you may wish to have. There are 3 porches, 2 in front and one, a very large one, on the side. Two very nice oak doors open to the front porches. Behind the home is a garage, (roughly 18x24'), a chicken coop, and a firepit for summer relaxing. To the side are 2 other buildings, each about 12x24'. One is used by a neighbor as a ceramic studio. It has 220 wiring; the other is 3 & 1/2 sided and is used for storage. All but the chicken coop are white and are mostly of recent origin. There is also a cement-floored hitching post for 4 horses. This has the sought-after Fonda-Fultonville schools and adjoins a small community of youngish folks who have an abiding interest in growing their own food and participating in the arts. Across the street is a non-profit vegetable farm, part of this community's outreach. You have more than enough land here to participate in this along with a home big enough to accommodate rentals to their seasonal workers. If you want. Or you could use it as a B&B - or use it as originally intended, a grand single family home. Total taxes are only $4000 and the price is just as modest - $275000.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
